Effect of kisspeptin, neurokinin, and dynorphin neurons on regulation of reproduction.
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone pulsatility is under the influence of hypothalamic neuropeptides, especially neurons expressing kisspeptin, neurokinin B, and dynorphin. These hypothalamic cells are called KNDy neurons. By integrating hormonal and environmental …
Exosomes from miR-149-3p-transfected menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells ameliorate inflammation and migration of endometriosis cells.
Endometriosis carries remarkable social, public health, and financial consequences. Based on two theories of retrograde menstruation and stem cells, menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) play a significant role in endometriosis …
Lactate-mediated immune suppression and MDSC expansion in endometriosis: Mechanisms and nanoparticle-targeted therapies.
Endometriosis, a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue, is associated with severe pelvic pain, infertility, and profound immune dysregulation. Despite advances in hormonal therapy and …
Comparison of magnetic resonance imaging findings with and without intravenous contrast in women with pelvic endometriosis: A cross-sectional study.
Endometriosis is a common disease of the female genital system. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the best non-invasive diagnostic method for evaluating endometriosis.
