Translational andrology and urology ·doi:10.21037/tau-24-546

Background: Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder, with rising incidence rates and a decreasing age of onset, significantly affecting patients' quality of life and overall health. Urinary tract endometriosis (UTE) is a rare and i…

Frontiers in reproductive health ·doi:10.3389/frph.2025.1550814

Adenomyosis, an estrogen-dependent disorder, requires long-term therapy as current treatments (GnRH agonists, danazol, etc.) show symptom recurrence post-discontinuation. Dienogest (DNG), a selective progesterone receptor agonist, effective…

Frontiers in endocrinology ·doi:10.3389/fendo.2023.1246819

The junctional zone (JZ) is an important structure in the myometrium that maintains uterine fertility. Changes in the junctional zone are closely related to infertility and adenomyosis (ADS). As an increasing number of young women are affec…

Journal of ovarian research ·doi:10.1186/s13048-022-00963-9

BACKGROUND: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a known regulator of the development and maintenance of chronic pain in various chronic disorders. Together with its high-affinity tyrosine kinase type B (TrKB) receptor, BDNF is exten…

Several theories on the origin of adenomyosis (ADS) have been proposed, of which the most widely accepted is the fundamental pathogenic role of uterine eutopic endometrium. Emerging evidence suggests that circular RNAs participate in the mu…

The estrogen 17β‑estradiol has been proven to serve an indispensable role in the occurrence and development of adenomyosis (ADS). The let‑7a/Lin28B axis can control cell proliferation by acting as a tumor‑inhibiting axis in numerous types o…
