Endometriosis is a disease associated with pain symptoms and reduced fertility, characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. SETD3 is an actin-specific histidine N-methyltransferase that regulates actin stability …

Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder often associated with chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Conventional imaging modalities, such as transvaginal ultrasound and MRI, may underestimate the extent of di…

PURPOSE: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder associated with pain symptoms and infertility. The expression of microRNA miR-29c-3p is dysregulated in endometriosis. We aimed to identify novel molecular targets of miR-29c-3p fun…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition, and problems may persist or develop after the menopause. Endometriosis or its treatment in premenopausal women may lead to premature or early menopause. Thus, it is imperative…

Adenomyosis, a prevalent gynecologic condition involving invasion of endometrial tissue into the myometrium, remains poorly understood in terms of its molecular pathogenesis. Numb, an important regulator of cellular destiny and stem cell ma…

Endometriosis, affecting up to 10% of women in their reproductive years, is a chronic and multifactorial disease characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Traditionally associated with pain and infertility, rec…

Introduction: Adenomyosis, a prevalent gynecologic condition involving invasion of endometrial tissue into the myometrium, remains poorly understood in terms of its molecular pathogenesis. Numb, an important regulator of cellular destiny an…

Introduction: Bisphenol A is a synthetic compound widely used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins worldwide. As an environmental toxin, it has been reported in plastic equipment and utensils, water bottles and bottl…

Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of non-apoptotic cell death, plays a pivotal role in various diseases and is gaining considerable attention in the realm of endometriosis. Considering the classical pathomechanism theories, we hypothesize…

INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis is a special subtype of endometriosis, affecting the myometrium, affecting about 20% of women in the reproductive age period. Clinical symptoms and intensity are diverse and can vary from heavy menstrual bleeding a…

Endometriosis is a chronic condition affecting reproductive-aged women, characterized by the growth of ectopic endometrial tissue. Despite being benign, endometriosis is associated with an increased risk of certain cancers, including endome…

Many factors, including reproductive hormones, have been linked to a woman's risk of developing breast cancer (BC). We reviewed the literature regarding the relationship between ovulatory menstrual cycles (MCs) and BC risk. Physiological va…

Ovarian cancer (OC) is the eighth cancer both in prevalence and mortality in women and represents the deadliest female reproductive cancer. Due to generally vague symptoms, OC is frequently diagnosed only at a late and advanced stage, resul…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of infrequent periods (oligomenorrhoea) and absence of periods (amenorrhoea). It affects about 5% to 20% of women worldwide and often leads to anovulatory infertility. Ar…

STUDY QUESTION: How should endometriosis be diagnosed and managed based on the best available evidence from published literature? SUMMARY ANSWER: The current guideline provides 109 recommendations on diagnosis, treatments for pain and infe…

Objective: To clarify if endometriosis, especially deep infiltrating endometriosis (DE), in our cohort is associated with increased risk of obstetric complications. Material and Methods: Single center, retrospective analysis of consecutive …

The stem cell marker and RNA-binding protein Musashi-1 is overexpressed in endometriosis. Musashi-1-siRNA knockdown in Ishikawa cells altered the expression of stem cell related genes, such as OCT-4. To investigate the role of both human Mu…

Abstract In 2005, under the auspices of ESHRE, a group of international experts evaluated the existing best evidence and published the first European guideline on the management of endometriosis. This highly successful project was the first…
