Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age worldwide. It is a lead…

Abstract Objectives This study investigated the fertilizing potential of leuprolide acetate in infertile patients with endometriosis (EMS). Methods This study included 116 patients with the EMS infertility, who were randomly divided into th…

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder and a major cause of female infertility. While epigenetic dysregulation, notably DNA methylation, has been recognized as a key driver of PCOS pathogenesis, the specific involv…

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to identify the most diagnostically valuable features among the 11 MRI features of Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) described in the joint consensus statement by the Society of Abdominal Radiology (SAR) and the Eur…

We introduced our experience for an innovative and effective approach for cervical canal penetration in patients diagnosed with type II vaginal atresia with adequate uterine corpus development. The uterine cavity and neovagina was connected…

Endometriosis (EMs), a common and frequently occurring gynecological disease, is a major cause of chronic pelvic pain and infertility in women. Its pathogenesis remains unclear to date, and it is characterized by high invasiveness and recur…

MicroRNAs play crucial roles in regulating inflammatory responses and disease progression. Since its identification on chromosome 17q11.2 in 2005, miR-451 has emerged as a key regulator of multiple physiological and pathological processes. …

The NOD-like receptor family containing pyridine domain 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome serves as a pivotal mediator of innate immune responses and a central driver of inflammatory processes. Upon detection of pathogenic or danger-associated signals…

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying cervical precancerous lesions by employing bioinformatic approaches to identify key genes and signaling pathways. METHODS: A comprehensive strategy was adopted…

Endometriosis is characterized by aberrant epigenetic regulation, and our study reveals that both Ubiquitin Specific Protease 7 (USP7) and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) are significantly overexpressed in endometriosis tissues. Functional …

BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer (OC) is a gynecological malignancy tumor with high recurrence and mortality rates. Programmed cell death (PCD) is an essential regulator in cancer metabolism, whose functions are still unknown in OC. Therefore, it…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the causal effect of immune cells on endometriosis (EMS), we performed a Mendelian randomization analysis. METHODS: Mendelian randomization (MR) uses genetic variants as instrumental variables to investigate the c…

PURPOSE: Decreased ovarian reserve function is mainly characterized by female endocrine disorders and fertility decline. Follicular fluid (FF) exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to regulate the function of granulosa cells (GCs). Th…

BACKGROUND: Placental anomalies, including placenta previa (PP), placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS), and vase previa (VP), are associated with several adverse foetal-neonatal and maternal complications. However, there is still a lack…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis patients exhibit a cancer-like glycolytic phenotype. The pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2)/hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) axis plays important roles in glycolysis-related diseases, but its role in patients with …

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine and metabolic disorder characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation. Previous studies have demonstrated that the gut microbiome can affect the host tissue cells' mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m…

Along with the advancement of science and technology and the ongoing development of adjuvant therapies, the treatment options for common or difficult diseases related to gynecology have become more diversified.

BACKGROUND: Longevity is one of the most complex phenotypes, and its genetic basis remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the genetic correlation and potential causal association between gut microbiota and longevity. RESULTS: Linkage…

Background: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common benign uterine disease that threatens the normal life of patients. Cells associated with microenvironmental immune ecology are crucial in AM, although they are not as well understood at the cellular …

Cancer antigen 125 (CA125), encoded by the mucin 16 cell surface associated (MUC16) gene, has been widely used as a biomarker for ovarian cancer (OC) screening. However, it has yet to be elucidated as to why its levels increase with tumor p…

This study aimed to uncover effects of non-coding RNA transcripts on ovarian endometriosis (OEM) development. Two transcription datasets (GSE105764 and GSE105765) about OME were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and the…

Adenomyosis is a common chronic gynecological disorder with some tumor-like properties, including aberrant proliferation, invasion and migration. Berberine (BBR) is an isoquinoline derivative alkaloid with diverse pharmacological activities…

A previous study by our group has demonstrated that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces adenomyosis through stimulating inflammatory cell proliferation and invasive growth of stromal cells via Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling. The present…

To what extent could alcohol consumption affects female fertility is still unclear. The aim of this study was to quantitatively summarize the dose-response relation between total and specific types of alcohol beverage (beer, wine, and spiri…
