Weekly review: New FDA compliance coming, microRNAs for endometriosis, and more contemporaryobgyn.net
Endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are common, multifactorial gynecological disorders shaped by endocrine imbalance, immune dysfunction, metabolic disruption, genetic susceptibility, and environmental exposures. Despite their major contribution to infertility …
Alla Vash-Margita, MD, FACOG, discusses microRNAs as earlier detection biomarkers for endometriosis Contemporary OB/GYN
Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer comprises a special group of ovarian cancers that most probably originate from endometriosis foci. Several in vitro studies have shown that microRNA (miRNA) plays an important role …
Female infertility diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), and recurrent implantation failure (RIF) have different clinical phenotypes. However, they might be epigenetically convergent, and …
Endometriosis is traditionally conceptualized as a pelvic lesion-centered disease; however, mounting evidence indicates it is a chronic, systemic, and multifactorial inflammatory disorder. This review examines the molecular dialog between ectopic …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disease associated with pain, infertility, and delayed diagnosis. Non-invasive biomarkers are urgently needed to facilitate earlier detection and reduce the reliance on diagnostic laparoscopy. MicroRNAs …
Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles that mediate intercellular communication by transporting microRNAs, proteins, and lipids. Generated through Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport (ESCRT)-dependent mechanisms or ESCRT-independent pathways, exosomes are …
In the intricate landscape of health disorders in women, polycystic ovary syndrome and endometriosis stand out. Despite their complete etiology being unknown, their impact on women's health and link to …
Endometriosis is a common gynecological pathology, with an incidence of nearly 10% in patients of reproductive age, and is still underdiagnosed. A thorough and well-spread diagnostic study of endometriosis based …
