ObjectiveMesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes (MSC-exo) can treat reproductive disorders. However, the action of microRNAs (miRNAs) in this mechanism has yet to be systematically investigated. This study aimed to explore the effect …

Ovarian dysfunction is a common cause of female infertility, which is associated with genetic, autoimmune and environmental factors. Granulosa cells (GCs) constitute the largest cell population of ovarian follicles. Changes in GCs, includin…

Following the approval of Cervarix for the immunization of girls and women in China against high-risk human papillomavirus types 16 and 18, a non-interventional post-authorization safety study was performed. A multi-center prospective cohor…

BACKGROUND: There was inconsistency in optimal endometrial preparation protocol for frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) in patients with endometriosis. We conducted this study to investigate the effect of different endometrial preparation p…

Preeclampsia (PE) is a leading cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Although increasing lines of evidence suggest that both the placenta and the decidua likely play roles in the pathogenesis of PE, the molecular mechanism of…

Oocyte quality is a pivotal determinant of assisted reproductive outcomes. The quality of oocytes is intricately linked to their developmental microenvironment, particularly the levels of oxidative stress within the follicular fluid. Oxidat…

Most pregnancy losses worldwide are caused by implantation failure for which there is a lack of effective therapeutics. Extracellular vesicles are considered potential endogenous nanomedicines because of their unique biological functions. H…

The metastasis of malignant tumors determines patient prognosis. This is the main reason for the poor prognosis of patients with cancer and the most challenging aspect of treating malignant tumors. Therefore, it is important to identify ear…

Acute pancreatitis (AP), an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas, is a complicated disease without specific drug therapy. (R)-4,6-dimethoxy-3-(4-methoxy phenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indanone [(R)-TML104] is a synthesized analog of the natural pr…

Well-orchestrated maternal-fetal cross talk occurs via secreted ligands, interacting receptors, and coupled intracellular pathways between the conceptus and endometrium and is essential for successful embryo implantation. However, previous …

Endometriosis has been found to be closely related to autophagy. This study aimed to elucidate the possible mechanism of Bushen Wenyang Huayu Decoction (BWHD) in treating endometriosis (EMs) by targeting TLR4/NF-κB-mediated autophagy. Autol…

BackgroundTo compare the efficacy and safety of follitropin delta in its individualized fixed-dose regimen with follitropin alfa in a conventional adjustable dosing regimen in Chinese women.  METHODS: This was a subgroup analysis of the ran…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometrioma is a common gynecologic disease among reproductive-aged women. Pregnancy-related hormonal status may lead to changes of decidualization, which may resemble ovarian malignancies in sonographic appearance. Her…

The retrograde flow of endometrial tissues deposited into the peritoneal cavity occurs in women during menstruation. Classically (M1) or alternatively (M2) activated macrophages partake in the removal of regurgitated menstrual tissue. The f…

Mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) is one of the main active metabolites of di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP). In our previous works, by using rat and Drosophila models, we showed a disruption of neural function due to DEHP. However, the…

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of hysteroscopy surgery combined with Mirena on postoperative adverse reactions and recurrence rate of endometrial polyps (EP).MethodsA total of 312 patients who underwent hysteroscopic polypectomy of EP i…

BackgroundNicotinamide (NAM) is an important antioxidant, which is closely related to female fertility, but its role has not been clearly elucidated. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of NAM on follicular devel…

BackgroundAcupuncture or moxibustion has been proven to be effective for patients with primary dysmenorrhea (PDM). However, the respective advantages and potential central mechanism of acupuncture and moxibustion are worthy of investigating…

ObjectiveThe incidence of postmenopausal endometrial cancer (EC) is rising, and the uterine microbiota has recently been suggested to be an etiology of EC. However, the differences in microbiota profiles in paired EC and the adjacent non-EC…

Objective: To explore potential causal genetic variants and genes underlying the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyomas (ULs). Methods: We conducted the summary data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR) analyses and performed functional mapping …

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and prognosis of fertility-sparing treatment on endometrial cancer (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2.MethodsA total of 102 EC or AEH patients with obesity who rece…

PurposeWe aimed to evaluate the link between the GDF9 concentration in day 3 human embryo culture medium and embryo quality and viability.MethodsTwo independent, prospective, observational studies were conducted. In study 1, a total of 280 …

BACKGROUND: To determine whether gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist downregulation combined with hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can improve the reproductive outcomes in frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles for older patients (…

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to explore the association of expression of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in cumulus cells (CCs) from mature oocytes with oocyte quality and embryonic development.MethodsA …

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a special class of endogenous RNAs characterized by closed loop structures lacking 5' to 3' polarity and polyadenylated tails. They are widely present in various organisms and are more stable and conserved than …
