Background and Clinical Significance: Paratubal Leydig cell nodules are rare incidental findings that present diagnostic challenges. Case Presentation: A 45-year-old female with a history of hypertension and diabetes mellitus presented …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease. Cytochrome P450 aromatase which encoded by CYP19A1 is a key enzyme in the pathway of estrogen biosynthesis. cAMP response element (CRE) binding protein (CREB) and …
Endometriosis is a complex, heterogeneous disease with several genetic and non-genetic pathogenic factors. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT/mTOR) pathway may influence both progression and different stages …
Long interspersed element 1 (LINE-1) retrotransposons are repetitive sequences that can move within the genome by an autonomous mechanism. To limit their mutagenic potential, benign cells restrict LINE-1 expression through …
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder, whose pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Macrophages, a key type of immune cell, are pivotal in the context of endometriosis. This study seeks to explore …
Over 75% of failed pregnancies involve implantation defects. Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2) is an adaptor protein involved in signal transduction and cell communication. Here we show that the …
In women with endometriosis, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) or chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) is elevated in serum, peritoneal fluid, and endometriotic lesions, though its exact role in …
We recently showed that endometriotic peritoneal fluid (PF) altered the regulation of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) and H3K27me3. This study aimed to determine if PF by regulating EZH2/H3K27me3 …
Endometriosis is a common cause of chronic pelvic pain and lacks precise pathophysiological mechanisms. Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs), markers of oxidative stress and inflammation, are implicated in pain-related diseases …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Despite its prevalence and significant impact on women's health, the underlying mechanisms …
