ObjectiveTo estimate the feasibility and safety of single-incision multiport laparoscopy (SIMPL) used in patients who underwent laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) for gynecologic disease, and the cosmetic outcome and economic benef…

Objective(s)This study aims to identify a critical molecule that potentially participates in endometriosis pathogenesis and characterize its correlation with dysmenorrhea and recurrence.Study designWe utilized a bioinformatics-based strateg…

PurposeThe aim of the study was to observe alterations of pacemaker cells termed cajal-like type of tubal interstitial cells (t-ICC) in oviduct from early-stage EMs and tEP, discuss underlying mechanisms and potential role in tubal factor i…

Among its many functions, the ubiquitin-proteasome system regulates substrate-specific proteolysis during the cell cycle, apoptosis, and fertilization and in pathologies such as Alzheimer's disease, cancer, and liver cirrhosis. Proteasomes …

BackgroundmiRNAs are a group of small RNA molecules regulating target genes by inducing mRNA degradation or translational repression. Aberrant expression of miRNAs correlates with various cancers. Although miR-135a has been implicated in se…

BackgroundTo study the effect of endometrial thickness and pattern measured using ultrasound upon pregnancy outcomes in patients undergoing IVF-ET.MethodOne thousand nine hundred thirty-three women undergoing IVF treatment participated in t…

The 14-3-3 family of phosphoserine/phosphothreonine-binding proteins dynamically regulates the activity of client proteins in various signaling pathways that control diverse physiological and pathological processes. In response to environme…

BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in the development of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of polymorphisms in the VEGF gene with the susceptibility to endomet…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in VEGF gene with the risk of endometriosis and adenomyosis. METHODS: Genotypes were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polym…

BackgroundMost women with a clinical presentation consistent with ovarian cancer have benign conditions. Therefore methods to distinguish women with ovarian cancer from those with benign conditions would be beneficial. We describe the devel…

子宫内膜异位症(内异症)和子宫腺肌病(腺肌病)为妇科常见疾病,但其病因及发病机制尚不明确.虽为良性疾病,但具有周围浸润、远处转移和种植的恶性行为,其中血管生成在子宫内膜异位种植的过程中起重要作用。

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a major mediator of angiogenesis and vascular permeability, may play a key role in the development of adenomyosis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether these four VEGF polymorphisms (-2…

The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) may contribute to the development of adenomyosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) i…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) with the risk of endometriosis and adenomyosis. METHODS: Genotype…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the potential use of integrin av beta3 (Lm609) monoclonal antibody against ectopic lesion and microvessel angiogenesis of human endometriosis xenografts in SCID mice. METHODS: The endometrial tissues from endometriosis…

OBJECTIVE: To study the role of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor (c-Met) in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. METHODS: In situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry method was used to examine HGF mRNA and protein expression…
