Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory condition that affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women and is frequently associated with infertility and pelvic pain. Unlike many estrogen-dependent disorders, epidemio…

Angiogenesis mediated by vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is essential for physiological vascular remodeling but also drives pathological processes, including tumor growth, ocular neovascularization, and inflammation. Emerging …

Endometriosis is a common gynecological endocrine disease with unclear pathogenesis. Evidence suggests enhanced aerobic glycolysis in ectopic endometrium of endometriosis. The role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in female reproduc…

Endometriosis, characterized by the growth of uterine-like tissue outside the uterus, causes chronic pain and infertility. Current diagnostic and therapeutic strategies have notable limitations, including delayed diagnosis and adverse effec…

Ovarian steroid hormones-estrogen and progesterone-play a central role in regulating epithelial-stromal interactions in the uterus. These interactions are critical for uterine function, including endometrial receptivity, implantation, and d…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the ectopic implantation of endometrium outside the uterus associated with pelvic pain and infertility. The molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis …

The studies on how mast cells mediate endometriosis pain are still limited. Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor member X2 (MRGPRX2), a receptor expressed on mast cells, participates in pain, inflammation, and itch. However, it is still u…

Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic gynecological disease. RND3 is recognized as a potential autophagy-related biomarker in EMS. The aim of this study was to investigate the regulatory role of RND3 on autophagy and oxidative stress in EMS. Imm…

Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease that shares some common features of malignancy. Autophagy plays vital roles in endometriosis and influences endometrial cell metastasis, and hypoxia was identified as the initiator of this pat…

Endometriosis (EMs)-related infertility commonly has decreased endometrial receptivity and normal decidualization is the basis for establishing and maintaining endometrial receptivity. However, the potential molecular regulatory mechanisms …

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus, primarily affecting pelvic organs and tissues. In this study, we explored platelet activation in endometriosis. W…

In mammals, the endometrium undergoes dynamic changes in response to estrogen and progesterone to prepare for blastocyst implantation. Two distinct types of endometrial epithelial cells, the luminal (LE) and glandular (GE) epithelial cells …

Endometriosis is a common estrogen-dependent disorder wherein uterine lining tissue (endometrium) is found mainly in the pelvis where it causes inflammation, chronic pelvic pain, pain with intercourse and menses, and infertility. Recent evi…

Abstract Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disease affecting ~10% women in the reproductive age characterized by the growth of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. The inflammatory process has a key role in the i…

Endometriosis is a painful inflammatory disorder affecting ~10% of women of reproductive age. Although chronic pelvic pain (CPP) remains the main symptom of endometriosis patients, adequate treatments for CPP are lacking. Animal models that…

Endometriosis, a common gynecological disease, causes chronic pelvic pain and infertility in women of reproductive age. Due to the limited efficacy of current therapies, a critical need exists to develop new treatments for endometriosis. In…

Endometriosis (EMS) is a gynecologic disorder associated with infertility and characterized by the endometrial-type mucosa outside the uterine cavity. Currently available treatment modalities are limited to undesirable effects. Thus, in the…

Though endometriosis and infertility are clearly associated, the pathophysiological mechanism remains unclear. Previous work has linked endometrial ARID1A loss to endometriosis-related endometrial non-receptivity. Here, we show in mice that…

Microarray data of chorionic villous samples (CVSs) obtained from women of ∼11.5 gestational weeks who developed preeclampsia with severe features (sPE; PE-CVS) revealed a molecular signature of impaired endometrial maturation (decidualizat…

ABSTRACT Endometriosis is a common incurable inflammatory disorder that is associated with debilitating pelvic pain in women. Macrophages are central to the pathophysiology of endometriosis: they dictate the growth and vascularization of en…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory, gynecological disease characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue lesions outside of the uterus. Neutrophils are elevated in the systemic circulation and peritoneal fluid of endometriosi…

Endometriosis, characterized by extrauterine development of endometrial glands and stroma, is associated with increased risk of ovarian cancer development. In the present study, we investigated the role of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7)…

Reproductive processes, in particular events that concern pregnancy, are fine-tuned to produce offspring. Reproductive success is of prime importance for the survival of every species. The highly conserved and ubiquitously expressed serum g…

Endometriosis affects 10-15% of women and is associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Angiogenesis plays an essential role in its pathogenesis. Dendritic cells (DCs) were recently implicated in supporting tumor angiogenesis. As both tum…

ABSTRACT Since 1925, epidemiological and histological evidence for an association between endometriosis and ovarian neoplasia has accumulated. Recently, publications assaying the clonality of a given cell population have implied endometrios…
