Background: Endometriosis affects 10-15% of reproductive-aged women and is a leading cause of infertility through anatomical, inflammatory, and molecular mechanisms. Objective: This review synthesizes current evidence on the pathophysiology of …
Endometriosis is an inflammatory gynecologic disease characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue, resulting in pelvic pain and infertility. T-helper 9 (Th9) cells play a known role in various chronic …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder characterized by the ectopic implantation and persistence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Despite its high prevalence and significant impact on quality …
Estrogen stimulates corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) expression in endometrial tissue, and CRH signaling contributes to inflammation and pain, suggesting a mechanistic role in endometriosis pathophysiology. We previously identified elevated CRH receptor-1 …
Endometriosis, affecting 1 in 9 women, presents treatment and diagnostic challenges. To address these issues, we generated a comprehensive single-cell atlas of endometrial tissue, comprising 466,371 cells from 35 endometriosis …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and characterized by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth. Although traditionally considered a benign gynecological condition, increasing …
Over the last few decades, genomics has become integral to understanding disease pathophysiology, improving diagnostics, and refining treatment strategies. Endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and adenomyosis are highly prevalent benign gynecologic disorders …
Endometriosis is associated with oxidative stress and debilitating symptoms, yet its pathophysiology remains incompletely understood, and current treatments are still limited. In this study, oxidative stress responses were compared in …
Chronic pelvic pain is one of the most prevalent syndromes in family medicine, gynecology, and urology. Chronic pelvic pain patients are often misdiagnosed and have unnecessary prolonged suffering. Both misdiagnosis …
Background: Current endometriosis classification systems have important limitations in accurately describing total disease burden and predicting clinical outcomes. Existing staging frameworks often fail to integrate adenomyosis and do not adequately …
