IN VITRO: culturing of endometrial cells obtained from the uterine mucosa or ectopic sites is used to study molecular and cellular signalling relevant to physiologic and pathologic reproductive conditions. However, the lack of consensus on …

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…

BACKGROUND: Endometrial carcinoma is the most common gynecological cancer in Europe. Musashi-1 is known to be a key regulator of endometrial cancer stem cells and a negative prognostic marker. In the present study, we aimed to understand gr…

Abstract Study question Do Musashi proteins mechanistically contribute to the pathogenetic properties of endometriotic cells? Summary answer Silencing of Musashi-1 and Muashi-2 reduces the expression of stemness-related genes, inhibits sphe…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does resveratrol exert a potent inhibitory effect on the development of endometriosis by interfering with some pivotal processes? DESIGN: In-vitro cultures of primary endometriotic stromal cells, immortalized endometrial…

Endometriosis is a painful gynecological condition characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial cells. Little is known about its pathogenesis, which is partially due to a lack of suitable experimental models. Here, we use endometrial stro…

Abstract Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the impact of endometriosis on subsequent pregnancy and delivery. Methods: retrospective analysis by questionnaire / interview of cases (endometriosis laparoscopically removed / child wis…

The maladies affecting the female reproductive tract (FRT) range from infections to endometriosis to carcinomas. In vitro models of the FRT play an increasingly important role in both basic and translational research, since the anatomy and …

In recent years, interest in personalized medicine has considerably increased [...].

Cancer is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Advances in research on the biology of cancer revealed alterations in several key pathways underlying tumorigenesis and provided molecular targets for developing new and imp…

STUDY QUESTION: What are the effects of plant-derived antioxidant compounds urolithin A (UA) and B (UB) on the growth and pathogenetic properties of an in vitro endometriosis model? SUMMARY ANSWER: Both urolithins showed inhibitory effects…

microRNAs are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. Let-7d is a microRNA of the conserved let-7 family that is dysregulated in female malignancies including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, endom…

Study questionEndometriosis is characterized by invasive growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. The histidine N-methyltransferase SETD3 modulates actin function as a prerequisite for cell motlilty, contractility and invasive growt…

The therapeutic potential of Musashi (MSI) RNA-binding proteins, important stemness-associated gene expression regulators, remains insufficiently understood in breast cancer. This study identifies the interplay between MSI protein expressio…

Downregulated microRNA-142-3p signaling contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis [1] [2], an invasive disease where the lining of the uterus grows at ectopic locations, by yet incompletely understood mechanisms. Using bioinformatics…

Downregulated microRNA-142-3p signaling contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis, an invasive disease where the lining of the uterus grows at ectopic locations, by yet incompletely understood mechanisms. Using bioinformatics and in …

BACKGROUND: Given the disadvantages and limitations of current endometriosis therapy, there is a progressive increase in studies focusing on plant-derived agents as a natural treatment option with the intention of achieving high efficiency,…

STUDY QUESTION: What is the physiological role of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β1) and syndecans (SDC1, SDC4) in endometriotic cells in women with endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: We observed an abnormal, pro-invasive phenotype in a …

Abstract Endometriosis is a painful gynaecological condition characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial cells outside of the uterus. Little is known about the mechanisms by which endometrial fragments invade tissues. This is partially d…
