Investigating the effect of human amniotic membrane gel to minimize adhesions in endometriosis: findings from an experimental study using a rat model.

Postoperative adhesions and inflammation remain major challenges following endometriosis surgery. Human amniotic membrane gel (HAG) has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy with both anti-adhesive and anti-inflammatory properties. This study …

Vitamin D3 promotes regression of endometrial implants comparable to buserelin in a rat model of endometriosis.

Buserelin, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, reduces gonadotropin and estrogen levels and is commonly used to alleviate the symptoms of endometriosis. Vitamin D3 has been reported to exhibit anti-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic …

Anti-NRP1 peptide-engineered ROS/pH dual-responsive nanoparticles for Alpelisib delivery regulate Sema3A-NRP1/PI3K-AKT signaling to balance oxidative stress and inhibit angiogenesis in endometriosis.

Endometriosis progression is driven by oxidative stress and excessive angiogenesis within an inflammatory microenvironment. To overcome these challenges, we designed ROS/pH dual-responsive Alpelisib-loaded nanoparticles (Alp@TAT-AT7-NPs) functionalized with an anti-NRP1 peptide …

Dental pulp-derived mesenchymal stem cells reduce lesion progression in a rat model of endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease sustained by aberrant angiogenesis and progressive fibrosis. We evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of human dental pulp-derived mesenchymal stem cells (DP-MSCs) in a surgically …

Antagonizing the corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 1 with an orally bioavailable drug reduces endometriosis pain and associated adhesions†.

Estrogen stimulates corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) expression in endometrial tissue, and CRH signaling contributes to inflammation and pain, suggesting a mechanistic role in endometriosis pathophysiology. We previously identified elevated CRH receptor-1 …

Terazosin as a Non-Hormonal Treatment for Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease including aberrant local steroidogenesis, inflammation, angiogenesis, oxidative stress, and prostaglandin-mediated pain. Given the elevated adrenergic receptor expression in endometriotic lesions and the potential …

Correction to "Bushen Xiaozheng Decoction Improves Immunosuppression in a Rat Model of Endometriosis by Reducing IL-10 and TGF-β Levels".

Effects of Letrozole Alone or Combined with a GnRH Agonist on Inflammation, Folliculogenesis, and Estrogen Levels in a Rat Model of Peritoneal Endometriosis.

To evaluate the effects of letrozole alone and in combination with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist on inflammatory cytokines, folliculogenesis, and hormonal profiles in a rat model of surgically induced peritoneal …

Bushen Xiaozheng Decoction Improves Immunosuppression in a Rat Model of Endometriosis by Reducing IL-10 and TGF-β Levels.

How does the traditional Chinese compound Bushen Xiaozheng Decoction (BSXZD) affect the immunosuppressive microenvironment in rat endometriosis models?

Pathologic, Laboratory, and Surgical Findings of Topical Statin Gels (Simvastatin, Atorvastatin, and Rosuvastatin) in a Rat Model of Peritoneal Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease with frequent recurrence. Statins, due to their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, may help control disease progression, but comparative data on local administration are limited. …
