BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder with unclear molecular mechanisms. Ferroptosis, a regulated iron-dependent cell death, may play a key role, yet the specific genes involved remain underexplored. METHODS: Ferropto…

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests that aberrantly expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) participate in endometriosis pathogenesis. miR-1229-5p participates in the pathogenesis of several disease, but its precise role and mechanism in endometrio…

Adenomyosis (AM) is a common non-cancerous condition of the uterus that has significant effects on women's health. Despite its clinical importance, the advancement of dependable non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers has yet to be achieved. Thi…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) greatly affects women's reproductive health, identifying new drug targets for EM is urgently needed. This study utilizes comprehensive genome-wide Mendelian randomization (MR) and colocalization analyses, usin…

Endometriosis is a frequent gynecologic disease in the world. CircRNAs can exert a crucial role in various diseases. Nevertheless, little is known about its roles in endometriosis. We investigated the involvement of circ_0061140 in endometr…

Endometriosis is a pathological condition extensively studied, but its pathogenesis is not completely understood, since its pathophysiology stems from a broad spectrum of environmental influences and genetic factors. Moreover, the nature of…

EMT (Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition) is one of the factors in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. FMNL2 induced invasion of cancer cell through promoting EMT, but it is unclear the role of FMNL2 in the adenomyosis. By IHC staining, we found…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine disorder in reproductive-aged women. Clinical manifestations include hyperandrogenism, chronic anovulation, polycystic ovaries and being frequently accompanied by insulin resistance …

ObjectiveTo explore the role of functional genetic variant of IL12B in the pathogenesis of ovarian endometriosis.Study designThis study included 815 patients with ovarian endometriosis and 788 women in the control group. Two polymorphisms w…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition with unclear pathogenesis. Although a dysregulated lncRNA expression profile has been speculated, very few studies have addressed this hypothesis. We determined the differential lncRNA and m…

MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) is an important regulator of cell signaling pathways involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Here, we attempted to discover new ligands of miR-21 pre-element by carrying out stepwise high-throughput virtual scree…

Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMP) gene polymorphisms have been extensively evaluated as predisposing factors to human reproductive disorders. However, the evidence available is inconsistent. Th…

At the late 1940s, 17β-HSD1 was discovered as the first member of the 17β-HSD family with its gene cloned. The three-dimensional structure of human 17β-HSD1 is the first example of any human steroid converting enzyme. The human enzyme's str…

ObjectiveTo provide an update of currently recognized clinically relevant candidate and known genes for human reproduction and related infertility plotted on high resolution chromosome ideograms (850 band level) and represented alphabetical…

Adenomyosis is a common benign gynecological condition in female reproductive tract and the detailed molecular etiology remains largely elusive. Previous studies implicated that deregulated expression of DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase 3…

Endometriosis is a complex disorder of the female reproductive system where endometrial tissue embeds and grows at extrauterine location leading to inflammation and pain. Hundreds of polymorphisms in several genes have been studied as proba…

To investigate the influence of the interleukin-10 gene promoter polymorphisms on the susceptibility of endometriosis, we examined the association by performing a meta-analysis. The PubMed, Embase, HuGE Navigator and CNKI were searched to i…

Estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-α) polymorphisms have been hypothesized to be associated with the risk of endometriosis (EMT) development by many epidemiological studies, however, the available results were conflicting. To derive a more precise…

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is a neuropeptide that plays a pivotal role in reproductive processes. In recent years, it has become clear that it is also an anti-proliferative agent. GnRH analogs are now used clinically in the treat…
