Human fertility has declined sharply since 1950, and a growing body of evidence suggests that while conventional socioeconomic factors are well-established drivers of the broader demographic transition, they do not …
Oocyte formation occurs successfully within a meticulously controlled follicular environment characterized by well-documented endocrine, metabolic, and paracrine signals. Yet, the immunological landscape of the follicle and its role in influencing …
Lactic acid modification of histones represents an emerging post-translational modification that establishes a critical link between cellular metabolic reprogramming and epigenetic regulation through the covalent binding of lactic acid to …
Gynecological diseases, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis, are prevalent global health concerns. Conventional diagnostics often rely on invasive procedures or costly imaging, limiting accessibility in resource-constrained settings. …
The gut microbiota plays a crucial function in reproductive well-being and is vital for maintaining fundamental physiological balance. This article surveys the mutual relationships between the gut flora and the …
White adipose tissue is now recognized as an active endocrine organ that secretes numerous bioactive molecules known as adipokines. These proteins regulate essential physiological processes, including energy metabolism, inflammation, and …
Appendiceal endometriosis is a rare form of extragenital endometriosis that can mimic acute appendicitis. This reports presents the case of a 19-year-old woman with no significant medical history who presented …
Lactate is increasingly recognized not only as a metabolic end product of glycolysis but also as a signaling metabolite that links metabolic reprogramming to epigenetic and transcriptional regulation through protein …
Ceramide, a central hub in sphingolipid metabolism, serves as a critical bioactive signalling mediator that integrates lipid metabolism with multiple signalling pathways, primarily promoting autophagy and apoptosis. It influences female …
Female reproductive tissues repeatedly undergo controlled inflammation, immune adaptation, and tissue repair. Interleukin-33 (IL-33) and its receptor suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) sit at the center of these processes, but …
