Oxidative phosphorylation is becoming increasingly important in the induction and development of endometriosis. Recently, it has been reported that ring finger protein 43 (RNF43) is involved in the process of oxidative phosphorylation, but …

Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a key role in various diseases. However, their effect on endometriosis (EMs)‐associated infertility is poorly understood. We co‐cultured EVs from the female vaginal secretions with human sperm and …

Endometriosis is a benign gynecological condition characterized by increased growth, inflammation, invasion, and angiogenesis, partly regulated by a class of enzymes called matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). The importance of a few MMPs, e.g…

In a healthy body, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants remain balanced. When the balance is broken toward an overabundance of ROS, oxidative stress appears and may lead to oocyte aging. Oocyte aging is mainly reflected as the gra…

In vitro maturation (IVM) is a novel approach to overcome the adverse effects of human in vitro fertilization (IVF). The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of total and steroid-depleted serum obtained from patients with endo…

Endometriosis refers to a benign chronic gynecological disorder, and is defined as the ectopic growth of endometrium in pelvic cavity. Endometriosis affects about 10% of reproductive-aged women. Unfortunately, the pathogenesis of endometrio…

Endometritis is an inflammatory change in the structure of the endometrium due to various causes and is a common cause of infertility. Studies have confirmed that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a key regulatory role in various inflammatory disease…

Endometriosis is a frequent and chronic illness in young women which could be defined by the existence of endometrial stroma and glands outside of the normal site of the lining of the uterus. It has painful symptoms. The advanced stage of e…

Chrysin is a natural compound derived from honey, propolis, or passion flowers and has many functional roles, such as antiinflammatory and antiangiogenesis effects. Although endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease, there is a need t…

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological inflammatory disorder in which immune system dysregulation is thought to play a role in its initiation and progression. Due to altered sex steroid receptor concentrations and other signaling defects,…

Abstract Background Despite at the beginning known as a benign disease, endometriosis is defined as a risk factor for developing ovarian carcinoma. The effect of endometriosis on ovarian malignancy is known but its role in granulosa cell tu…

Silibinin is a flavonolignan extracted from milk thistle, which has been used for treating liver disorders, various cancers, and gynecological diseases. However, attempts for treating endometriosis with silibinin are lacking. In this study,…

Apigenin is a plant‐derived flavonoid having antiproliferative, anti‐inflammatory, and anti‐angiogenic properties in chronic and metabolic diseases, and cancers. However, the functional role of apigenin remains to be identified in human end…

Endometriosis is characterized by disabling symptoms that afflict young women with severe physical discomfort, difficulty in relationship life, and infertility; however, the currently available therapeutic strategies are unsatisfactory. Goa…

Endometriosis is a very common disease, affecting 10% of women in the reproductive age. To date, a significant delay between onset of the symptoms and definitive diagnosis is caused by the lack of a reliable non-invasive diagnostic test. Re…

The anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) is a homodimeric glycoprotein member of the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) superfamily, is secreted by Sertoli cells in the embryonic testes and is responsible of the regression of the mullerian duct. …

Endometriosis is estimated to affect 10% of women during the reproductive years. The lack of a non-invasive diagnostic test significantly contributes to the long delay between onset of the symptoms and definitive diagnosis of endometriosis.…

Endometriosis is a common benign pathology, characterised by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the endometrial cavity with a prevalence of 10-15% in reproductive-aged women. The pathogenesis is not completely understood, and severa…

The etiology of endometriosis, a gynecological disease characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity, is still unknown. Our research group has recently demonstrated the presence of ectopic endomet…
