BACKGROUND: Deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), characterized by its extrauterine invasion, is strongly associated with chronic pelvic pain (CPP). Peripheral-central sensitization synergistically contribute to the pathogenesis of CPP i…
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to evaluate the synergistic efficacy and safety of focused ultrasound ablation therapy (FUAS) combined with thermal balloon endometrial ablation (TBEA) in treating adenomyosis. MATERIALS AND METH…
BACKGROUND: Existing biomarkers for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) have demonstrated limited sensitivity and specificity. This study aimed to investigate plasma protein and metabolite characteristics of EOC and identify novel biomarker can…
Lymph node metastasis (LNM) confers significant treatment failure and adverse clinical outcomes in cervical cancer (CCa). However, large unknown lies in the mechanisms underlying LNM in CCa. In this study, we discovered that PRDX3 is elevat…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a widespread benign gynecological disorder. The signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway plays an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis through regulating prolif…
The modification of proteins by small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO), known as SUMOylation, regulates biological function by changing protein transcription and translation. During the estrous cycle the endometrium undergoes continual change…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of human β-defensin-2 (hBD-2) in the endometrium of patients with endometriosis (EMS) and explore the potential role of hBD-2 in the pathogenesis of EMS. DESIGN: Prospective controlled study. SAMPL…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression of endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthase (eNOS and iNOS) in the eutopic endometria of patients with endometriosis and infertility, and to detect the effect of gonadotropin releasing hormone ago…
