Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent condition characterized by ectopic implantation of endometrial tissue, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying lesion persistence remain incompletely understood. Aquaporins (AQPs), transmembrane water channels involved in cellular …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disorder. Cholesterol (CHO) has been reported to be closely associated with estrogen synthesis and inflammatory responses. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying the effects of cholesterol …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder. According to the most widely recognized theory of retrograde menstruation, endometrial cells require completion of three key steps during ectopic implantation: adhesion, invasion, …
Endometrial receptivity is essential for successful pregnancy, and endometriosis is widely recognized as a disruptor of this process. Poor endometrial receptivity is also a key factor contributing to recurrent implantation …
The human microbiome, particularly the gut and reproductive tract microbiota, plays a critical role in regulating fertility through complex molecular and immunological mechanisms. This review synthesizes emerging evidence on the …
Fifteen years have elapsed since the publication of the seminal work establishing the association between risk variants in the Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) gene and kidney disease in individuals of African …
Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases in women and is still one of the most understudied diseases, affecting the daily lives of patients. Although the exact cause …
In this opinion, we propose that compromised microvascular perfusion and inflammation are fundamental drivers of chronic pain syndromes, with many of these conditions sharing a common etiology involving suboptimal blood …
Endometriosis, a chronic estrogen-dependent disease, is associated with a risk of developing gynecological cancers. The mechanisms of this association remain unclear, but emerging evidence implicates key signaling pathways, including PI3K/AKT/mTOR …
Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by the growth of ectopic endometrial-like tissue and fibrosis. Metabolic reprogramming, particularly enhanced glycolysis, and immune microenvironment dysregulation are key features of …
