The functional deterioration of granulosa cells (GCs), essential for follicular growth, steroidogenesis, and oocyte competence, indicates ovarian aging and reduced fertility. An expanding corpus of research indicates that oxidative stress i…

Ferroptosis is a novel kind of regulated cell death that occurs when redox equilibrium is disrupted, leading to iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis is defined by the buildup of deleterious lipid hydroperoxides, the inactivation o…

Endometriosis impairs fertility by interfering with ovarian function, embryonic development, and endometrial receptivity. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are recognised as non-invasive biomarkers that may indicate biological processes based on…

Background/objectivesApproximately 50% of infertility cases are attributable to male factors; yet conventional semen examination can not identify the molecular abnormalities that hinder sperm functionality. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) deri…

Background/aimUrinary tract injuries (UTIs) are a significant complication in abdominal, laparoscopic and robotic surgeries. Due to the proximity of the urinary tract to critical structures, procedures like colorectal surgery, hysterectomy …
