Endometriosis (EMs) features ectopic implantation of endometrial stromal cells (EESCs) and strong anoikis resistance, yet how inflammatory signals reprogram mitochondrial function remains unclear. Here, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), particularly their …
Growing evidence highlights the role of microbiota, including those of the gut, reproductive tract, and endometrial tissue, as critical functional drivers in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM). Studies have revealed …
