Background and aimResearch has shown that green tea catechins may influence the activity of drug metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters. We examined whether epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) affected the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodyn…
The endometrial gland is one of the most important components of the mammalian uterus. However, few studies have been conducted on the regulatory mechanisms of adenogenesis during the development of endometrium. In the present study, we det…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is now considered to be a systemic disease rather than a disease that primarily affects the pelvis. Dienogest (DNG) has unique advantages in the treatment of endometriosis, but it also has side effects. Alternative…
Endometriosis is a chronic, inflammatory, estrogen-dependent gynecological disease characterized by the growth of endometrial stromal cells and glands outside the uterine cavity in response to hormones, which commonly occurs in reproductive…
Abstract Purpose To classify abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) according to the invasive levels of tissue mass, and to compare the differences in clinical characteristics between different types of AWE. Methods In this study, we retrospect…
BACKGROUND: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is one of the common sequela of pelvic inflammatory disease, the pathological factors are adhesions, scarring and pelvic congestion which caused by inflammation, often cause abdominal pain and lumbosacr…
Ovarian cancer is an important leading cause of cancer-related deaths among females, and a single biomarker does not have the sensitivity and specificity required for an effective ovarian cancer screening. Herein, we investigate a high-perf…
BackgroundThere has been increasing interest in the relationship between body mass index(BMI) and pregnancy outcomes, especially in women undergoing frozen embryo transfer(FET). Several observational studies have been published, but so far …
BACKGROUND: We aimed to summarize the available data regarding the levels of leptin and adiponectin and the key modulators of endometriosis compared to the controls. METHODS: The electronic databases such as MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, Cochra…
Abstract Background There is few predictive tools for live birth in women with adenomyosis, which provide further personalized and clinically specific information related to individualized decisions making during IVF/ICSI treatment. Methods…
An observational cross-sectional study was conducted in a group (n = 371) of fertile age women with endometriosis, by administering a structured questionnaire, in order to evaluate the incidence of gynecological and systemic comorbidities a…
Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common female reproductive system tumors, with close to 200,000 new cases each year. It accounts for approximately 7% of the total number of female cancers, but until now the cause of EC has remain…
This study aimed to explore common molecular changes in the infertile endometrium from women with and without endometriosis (EM). By analyzing the dataset GSE120103 from Gene Expression Omnibus, a total of 3252 shared differentially express…
As one of the most successful therapeutic target families, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have experienced a transformation from random ligand screening to knowledge-driven drug design. We are eye-witnessing tremendous progresses made …
Abstract Background: Luteinized unruptured follicular follicle syndrome (LUFS) is a special type of ovulatory dysfunction and a common cause of infertility. It is estimated that its prevalence is 13% ~ 73% in endometriosis patients. Increa…
Endometriosis is an oestrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory process with primary symptoms including dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. The immune environment of the endometrium is essential for successful embryo implantati…
MicroRNAs are a class of evolutionary conserved non-coding small RNAs that play key regulatory roles at the post-transcriptional level. In recent years, studies have shown that miR-214 plays an important role in regulating several biologica…
Endometriosis (EM), the presence of functional endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity, is a common gynecological disorder. At present, the pathogenesis of EM has not been fully elucidated, so there is still a lack of effec…
The endometrium undergoes a pregnancy-delivery-repair cycle multiple times during the reproductive lifespan in females. Decidualization is one of the critical events for the success of this essential process. We have previously reported tha…
CapsuleOligo/amenorrhea is an independent risk factor of low ovarian response but not high ovarian response, particularly in women with low AMH levels.ObjectiveTo investigate the association of menstrual cycle length (MCL) with anti-Mülleri…
Purpose To determine the impact of ovarian endometrioma per se on in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) outcomes. Methods This retrospective study was conducted using two groups. The endometrioma group consisted…
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is characterized by extreme fatigue and disabling symptoms. Women with CFS often have a high risk of gynaecological problems such as irregular menstruation, endometriosis and pelvic pain and sexual dysfunction…
The tumoral origin and extensive passaging of HeLa cells, a most commonly used cervical epithelial cell line, raise concerns on their suitability to study the cell responses to infection. The present study was designed to isolate primary ep…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic disorder in reproductive women where abnormal folliculogenesis is considered as a common characteristic. Our aim is to evaluate the potential of follicular fluid (FF) Rama…
MiR-30a-5p plays an important role in various cardiovascular diseases, but its effect in atherosclerosis has not been reported. Apolipoprotein E-deficient (Apo E-/-) mice were used to investigate the role of miR-30a-5p in atherosclerosis, a…
