Adult endometrial glands undergo cyclic regeneration and development during the menstrual cycle. Their secretions are vital for endometrial functions and early pregnancy, yet the mechanisms controlling gland development are not …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent disorder influenced by both genetic and environmental factors, including endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs). This study aimed to identify EDC-responsive genes contributing to endometriosis risk by integrating …
Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases in women and is still one of the most understudied diseases, affecting the daily lives of patients. Although the exact cause …
tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs(ncRNAs) generated from precursor or mature tRNAs under stress conditions, such as starvation, hypoxia, or oxidative stress. They are broadly classified …
Estrogen receptor α (ESR1) is a pivotal regulator of endometrial homeostasis and reproductive function, yet the coregulators that fine tune its transcriptional activity remain incompletely defined. In this issue of …
Ovarian cancer (OC) is highly lethal, largely due to late diagnosis and chemoresistance. Endometriosis (EM) increases the risk of specific OC subtypes, but the molecular connection between the two diseases …
We aimed to generate immortalized stromal cell lines from the ovarian and fallopian tube tissues of a single patient using Sendai virus (SeV) vectors and identify candidate stromal genes involved …
Ovarian fibrosis is increasingly recognized as a pivotal factor contributing to ovarian aging, dysfunction and female infertility. It results from chronic or repetitive ovarian injury, such as that caused by …
Endometriosis-associated ovarian carcinoma (EAOC) predominantly arises from the malignant transformation of endometriomas, yet the mechanism is incompletely defined. Spatial transcriptomic analysis of human specimens of normal endometrium, endometriomas, and EAOC …
Endometriosis (EMs) is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease. While apoptosis resistance (evidenced by Bcl-2 upregulation and Bax/caspase-3 downregulation) remains a hallmark of EMs, recent studies reveal a paradoxical coexistence of …
