Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is an extremely uncommon uterine malignancy, and commonly arises from preexisting endometriosis. On rare occasions, ESS arises from extrauterine tissues and is known as extra-uterine ESS. …
Decidualization of endometrial stromal cells involves significant morphological and functional changes in which alpha-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression decreases. Meflin, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, suppresses αSMA expression and inhibits fibrosis in …
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder affecting women of reproductive age, often leading to chronic pain, reduced quality of life, and infertility. It is characterized by ectopic endometrial growth within …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder frequently associated with infertility and characterized by progesterone resistance and impaired endometrial receptivity. While ectopic lesions define the disease, accumulating evidence indicates that molecular …
Endometriosis is increasingly recognized as a systemic disorder involving complex interactions between nerves and immune cells, driving chronic pain and inflammation beyond the initial theories. Recent breakthroughs highlight aberrant sensory …

Alessandro Santin, MD: Top takeaways from endometrial stromal sarcoma mutational analysis Contemporary OB/GYN
Sex cord-like morphology is now a well-known feature of occasional examples of endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary or fallopian tube. Recently, we have observed that these tumors are frequently negative …
Decidualization of human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) precedes the successful implantation of a human embryo. Improper decidualization has been reported in numerous conditions associated with infertility including endometriosis. Multiple pathways, …
