Each month, the endometrium is shed, regenerated, and transformed in response to changing hormone levels. These processes occur in a tightly regulated manner, and irregularities are linked with reproductive health …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and an increased risk of endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. Despite extensive research, its molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This …
To investigate whether ovarian endometrioma is associated with disruption of the endocrine-regulated transition between the anti-adhesive modulator podocalyxin (PCX) and the adhesive modulator leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) in the endometrium.
Endometriosis (EMS) is a common gynecological disease that seriously affects women's health and quality of life. However, the detailed dynamic cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying EMS pathogenesis remain largely unknown. …
Endometriosis-associated infertility is a complex condition in which the presence of endometrial-like tissue disrupts implantation and early pregnancy. Epigenetic regulators are critical for implantation and decidualization, yet their contribution to …
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are both characterised by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growing outside the endometrium of the uterus, however, they are ultimately distinct diseases with different pathophysiological mechanisms. Endometriosis and adenomyosis …
Decidualization of endometrial stromal cells involves significant morphological and functional changes in which alpha-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression decreases. Meflin, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, suppresses αSMA expression and inhibits fibrosis in …
Adenomyosis is a heterogeneous, nonmalignant uterine disorder characterized by ectopic endometrium within the myometrium, leading to abnormal uterine bleeding, dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and subfertility. Once considered a disease of …
Endometriosis has been associated with alterations in the reproductive tract microbiota, yet studies focusing on the endometrial microbiome remain inconsistent, partly due to the low-biomass nature of this niche and …
The endometrium is a highly dynamic and complex tissue lining the uterus, playing a central role in reproductive health. Despite its importance, the pathogenesis of many benign endometrial disorders remains …
