The present study aimed to investigate the association between two MutL homolog 1 (MLH1) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs63749795 and rs63749820, and the risk of endometriosis.
To explore the genetic associations between 91 types of blood cells (BCs) and endometriosis (EMs), providing references for the treatment of EMs. Forward Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted with …
Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) is expressed on the plasma membrane of granulosa cells in the ovarian follicles. FSHR is involved in the development and maturation of Graafian follicles, along with …
Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent disease, in the pathophysiology of which sex hormones (androgens, estrogens, etc.) are involved. The level of bioactive androgens/estrogens (in the free state) in the organism largely …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder. Theobromine has been implicated in diverse health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory properties. However, the precise association between theobromine and endometriosis remains …
Ovarian cancer (OC) is highly lethal, largely due to late diagnosis and chemoresistance. Endometriosis (EM) increases the risk of specific OC subtypes, but the molecular connection between the two diseases …
Alarelin acetate, a synthetic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue, is widely used to manage endometriosis and hormone-sensitive malignancies. Although its safety profile is generally favorable, we report the first documented case …
This study evaluated the feasibility of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping using dried blood spot (DBS) samples stored under various conditions, based on the genotyping success rate and concordance with whole …
To investigate the associations between oxidative DNA damage biomarkers [levels of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), telomere length (TL), human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), telomerase activity (TA) and polymorphisms of human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase …
Immune-related factors may serve an important role in the development of endometriosis, considering the occurrence of substantial abnormalities in the immune system of women with endometriosis, including reduced T-cell reactivity …
