Women with endometriosis can suffer from decreased fecundity or complete infertility via abnormal oocyte function or impaired placental-uterine interactions required for normal pregnancy establishment and maintenance. Although AT-rich inter…

OBJECTIVE: Adenomyosis is a common benign gynecological disease which has some malignant behaviors. Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is a newly identified tumor suppressor gene which lowly expresses in various cancers. However, the expressio…

OBJECTIVE: In this study, the effects of survivin (SVV) on angiogenesis were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. METHODS: The adenovirus (Ad)-mediated murine SVV gene was transfected into rat aortic endothelial cells (RAECs). RAECs expressing …

Birth weight (BW) has been shown to be influenced by both fetal and maternal factors and in observational studies is reproducibly associated with future risk of adult metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular dis…

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a short insemination procedure on embryo development, assess the reliability of a fertilization check prior to the appearance of pronuclei and elucidate the role of rescue intracytoplasmic sperm in…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the incidence, influencing factors and intervention of gestrinone-related abnormal uterine bleeding at different dosage of gestrinone in the clinical treatment. METHODS: This was a multicenter, randomized, control…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety of ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for patients with diffuse adenomyosis. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study. The data was collected from 417 symptomatic ad…

BACKGROUND: The study was performed to characterize and compare the serum lipid profile in gynecologic cancers and benign diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 1,550 age-matched females were included in this study: 760 patients with …

OBJECTIVE: To examine whether pathogenic copy number changes (CNCs) can be identified in deoxyribonucleic acid from females with different classes of müllerian anomalies. DESIGN: We conducted array-based copy number variant (CNV) analysis …

Bone marrow derived cells engraft to the uterine endometrium and contribute to endometriosis. The mechanism by which these cells are mobilized and directed to the endometrium has not been previously characterized. We demonstrate that human …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate soluble neuropilin-1 (sNRP-1) in circulating and NRP-1 protein in cervical tissues from patients with cervical cancer or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). METHODS: sNRP-1 was measured in 64 preoperative pa…

PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) with T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) for the preoperative staging of early endometrial carcinoma. METHODS: This retrospective study included 22 …

In this manuscript, the initial feasibility of a catheter based phase stabilized swept source optical coherence tomography (OCT) system was studied for characterization of the strain inside different human ovarian tissue groups. The ovarian…

Early endosomes are transported bidirectionally by cytoplasmic dynein and kinesin-3, but how the movements are regulated in vivo remains unclear. Here our forward genetic study led to the discovery of VezA, a vezatin-like protein in Aspergi…

Gonadotrophin‑releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists (GnRHa) have been widely used to induce a state of downregulation for in vitro fertilization, and its direct effects on the pituitary are well known. However, the effects of GnRHa on the expre…

[Purpose] This study aimed to investigate the clinical diagnostic value of dynamic enhanced multislice computed tomography (MSCT) for Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome (FHCS). [Subjects and Methods] This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical …

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 12 epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) susceptibility alleles. The pattern of association at these loci is consistent in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers who are at high risk of EOC. After…

BACKGROUND: Recent studies demonstrate that chronic pelvic pain is associated with altered afferent sensory input resulting in maladaptive changes in the neural circuitry of pain. To better understand the central changes associated with chr…

DNA methylation is clinically relevant to important tumorigenic mechanisms. This study evaluated the methylation status of candidate genes in cervical neoplasia and determined their diagnostic performance in clinical practice. Cervical canc…

To improve the clinical course of diseases, more accurate diagnostic and assessment methods are required as early as possible. In order to achieve this, metabolomics offers new opportunities for biomarker discovery in complex diseases and m…

This study aimed to develop a specific and sensitive method for the rapid detection of NF-κB activity in pancreatic tissue. Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: (1) 16 rats in the acute pancreatitis (AP) group received re…

OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of NF-κB gene short hairpin RNA (shRNA) on endometriosis and identify the function of NF-κB on the maintenance and development of endometriosis in Macaca fascicularis. METHODS: The Macaca fascic…

The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most important candidate genes for the development of endometriosis, and VEGF genetic polymorphisms might be potentially associated with endometriosis risk. However, the results st…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Ferulic acid (FA), ligustrazine (LZ) and tetrahydropalmatine (THP) are separately isolated from Chinese Angelica, Szechwan Lovage Rhizome and Rhizoma in the Jiawei-Foshou-San formula, a popular traditional Ch…

OBJECTIVE: Protease-activated receptor 2 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. We studied the effect of ENMD-1068, a protease-activated receptor 2 antagonist, on the development of endometriosis in a noninvasive fluo…
