Endometriosis is a chronic disease that impacts an estimated 10% of women. It is characterized by endometrial glands and stroma growing outside the uterus. Surgery is a mainstay of diagnosis …
Endometriosis, an atypical benign disorder, may disrupt epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) due to a dysregulated balance between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors. Ramipril, an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, is …
Intestinal stenosis secondary to deep endometriosis grade four is an uncommon presentation that often leads to delayed diagnosis and challenging therapeutic decisions. We report the case of a 41-year-old woman …
Endometriosis is an inflammatory estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by pain, dyspareunia, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. This is due to the invasion of different organs by endometrial tissue that causes inflammation, angiogenesis, and …
Endometriosis is traditionally conceptualized as a pelvic lesion-centered disease; however, mounting evidence indicates it is a chronic, systemic, and multifactorial inflammatory disorder. This review examines the molecular dialog between ectopic …
Three-dimensional (3D) culture systems provide physiologically relevant models that better replicate in vivo cell architecture and function compared to the conventional two-dimensional cultures. In reproductive biology, 3D models of endometrial …
(Abstracted from Contraception 2025:150:111016, doi:10.1016/j.contraception.2025.111016) Adenomyosis occurs when ectopic endometrial glands invade the myometrium and can cause symptoms such as an enlarged uterus, heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, infertility, and …
Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynecological disease, characterized by the growth of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus and by the presence of chronic inflammatory lesions. This condition is …
Endometriosis (EM) is a debilitating disease involving the growth of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. To further our understanding of epigenomic dysregulation in EM and search for disease …
Adult endometrial glands undergo cyclic regeneration and development during the menstrual cycle. Their secretions are vital for endometrial functions and early pregnancy, yet the mechanisms controlling gland development are not …
