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 an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disorder. Cholesterol (CHO) has been reported to be closely associated with estrogen synthesis and inflammatory responses. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying the effects of cholesterol …
Uterine leiomyomas or fibroids, are non-cancerous smooth muscle proliferations of the uterus, occurring mostly in women of reproductive age. Their pathogenesis involves complex growth factor interactions that regulate cellular proliferation, …
Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynecological disease, characterized by the growth of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus and by the presence of chronic inflammatory lesions. This condition is …
The extracellular matrix (ECM) critically influences cell behavior, yet its properties in human endometrial lesions (HEL) and human uterine fibromas (HUF) are not well characterized. This study aimed to characterize …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a non-cancerous invasive condition where tissue resembling the lining of the uterus is found outside of the uterine cavity. Endometriotic lesions have been found in nearly every …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and exhibits tumor-like characteristics such as invasion, recurrence, and hormone-dependent proliferation despite its benign nature. …
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a well-established etiological agent for cervical cancer, yet its contribution to endometrial malignancies remains underrecognized and mechanistically distinct. This paper synthesizes current evidence to explain the …
Endometriosis is a complex, chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder with estrogen‑dependent characteristics that severely impairs the quality of life of women and potentially leads to infertility. However, its pathogenesis remains poorly …
We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis across 14 biobanks worldwide, including 32% non-European patient participants, as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative …
