The reduction in oocyte competence and ovarian reserve coincides with reproductive ageing; nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Our testable mechanistic hypothesis is that the oxidative …
Mitophagy is a catabolic mechanism that selectively degrades damaged mitochondria and precisely modulates mitochondrial content, thereby maintaining intracellular homeostasis under stress conditions. To date, most reviews on mitophagy have predominantly …
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from umbilical cord blood (UCB) exhibit significant therapeutic efficacy in endometriosis; however, the molecular mechanisms governing their regulation remain incompletely elucidated. This study delves into …
Endometriosis (EMS), a multifactorial and chronic benign gynecological disease characterized by ectopic endometrial growth, remains poorly understood in its pathogenesis. Proline, glutamic acid, leucine-rich protein 1 (PELP1), implicated in various …
Endometriosis (EMs), a common gynecological disorder, involves complex molecular mechanisms. Metabolic reprogramming (MR) has been recognized as a hallmark of EMs, contributing to lesion survival and immune microenvironment remodeling. This …
Female infertility, affecting millions worldwide, involves complex molecular mechanisms such as chronic inflammation, impaired cellular death, and protein regulation. This study explores how the cytokine IL-6, the autophagy marker LC3, …
Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular process crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis by degrading damaged organelles and misfolded proteins. Emerging evidence highlights its pivotal role in endometrial diseases, including endometriosis, …
Disulfidptosis is a novel Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate (NADPH) deficiency-driven cell death pathway characterized by cystine overload and aberrant disulfide bond formation in actin cytoskeletal proteins, distinct from apoptosis, ferroptosis, …
Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. It affects 10-15% of reproductive aged women, causing pelvic pain and infertility. Existing …
Endometriosis is the growth of endometrial-like tissue at non-uterine locations, primarily within the peritoneal cavity. The disease can have diverse presentations with superficial lesions, deep invading lesions and ovarian cysts …
