Growth arrest-specific protein 6 (GAS6) has an important role in regulating the immune system. Recent studies have revealed its association with the pathophysiology of endometriosis and identified GAS6 as one of the hub genes and a biomarke…

Abstract Study question Can blood biomarker candidates for peritoneal endometriosis be identified by an untargeted transcriptomic approach using whole genome RNA sequencing of whole blood and machine learning? Summary answer A machine learn…

ABSTRACT Context Peritoneal endometriosis (PE) remains challenging to diagnose, as it cannot be detected using standard imaging modalities and no clinically validated biomarkers are available. Objective To identify novel blood-based biomark…

Endometriosis is a complex gynecological pathology with a broad spectrum of symptoms, affecting around 10% of reproductive-aged women. Ovarian cancer (OC) is a heterogeneous disease for which we lack effective diagnostic and therapeutic str…

The 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (HSD17B1) has a key role in estrogen biosynthesis as it catalyzes the reduction of estrone to the most potent estrogen, estradiol. Estradiol has a high affinity for estrogen receptors and thus sti…

Objectives Endometriosis (EM) is an estrogen-dominant inflammatory disease linked to infertility that affects women of reproductive age. EM lesions respond to hormonal signals that regulate uterine tissue growth and trigger inflammation and…

OBJECTIVES: Endometriosis is a common benign gynaecological disease that significantly compromises the quality of life of patients. To date, invasive surgery is the method of choice to visually and histologically confirm endometriosis. Thus…

Local formation and action of estrogens have crucial roles in hormone dependent cancers and benign diseases like endometriosis. Drugs that are currently used for the treatment of these diseases act at the receptor and at the pre-receptor le…

STUDY QUESTION: Can cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) and transforming growth factor-β-induced protein ig-h3 (TGFBI) alone or in combination with cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) be considered as potential blood biomarkers of endometrio…

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting women in their reproductive age. Due to non-specific symptoms, women with endometriosis are often misdiagnosed or are accurately diagnosed only after several years. Diagn…

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological disease that is characterized by endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Endometriosis significantly compromises the quality of life of women and is a major cause of infertility. The gold…

17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases catalyse interconversion at the C17 position between oxidized and reduced forms of steroidal nuclear receptor ligands. The type 1 enzyme, expressed in malignant cells, catalyses reduction of the less-active…

Endometriosis is a common non-malignant gynecological disease that significantly compromises fertility and quality of life of the majority of patients. The gold standard for diagnosis is visual inspection of the pelvic organs by surgical la…

This systematic review analyses the contribution of metabolomics to the identification of diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for uterine diseases. These diseases are diagnosed invasively, which entails delayed treatment and a worse clinic…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder, which is treated surgically and/ or pharmacologically with an unmet clinical need for new therapeutics. A completed phase I trial and a recent phase II trial that investigated the steroidal …

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological condition characterized by severe pelvic pain and/or infertility. The combination of nonspecific symptoms and invasive laparoscopic diagnostics have prompted researchers to evaluate potential biomark…

AIM: To evaluate preoperative levels of CA-125 and HE4 in patients with endometriosis-like symptoms and to construct diagnostic models. PATIENTS: Prospective case-control study included 124 endometriosis patients and 97 control patients. MA…

Endometriosis is a complex, polygenic, and estrogen-dependent disease that affects 6% to 10% of women of reproductive age, and 30% to 50% of women with infertility and/or pelvic pain. Surgical diagnosis of endometriosis is still the gold st…

Endometriosis is a gynecological disease that is defined as the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, and it is one of the main causes of female infertility. Although there is unfortunately no known ‘optimal’ treat…

Endometriosis is a gynecological disease that is defined as the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, and it is one of the main causes of female infertility. Although there is unfortunately no known ‘optimal’ treat…

Gynecological diseases such as endometriosis, adenomyosis and uterine fibroids, and gynecological cancers including endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer, affect a large proportion of women. These diseases are estrogen dependent, and their …

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus, in different parts of the peritoneal cavity. It affects up to 10% of reproductive-age women and up to 50% of women with infertility. Surgical diag…
