Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) has emerged as a highly promising therapeutic target due to its critical role in the pathogenesis and progression of endometriosis. To date, a variety …
Background and Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissue, comprising both glandular and stromal components, located outside the uterine cavity, affecting approximately …
Endometriosis is a common, estrogen-driven chronic gynecologic disorder defined by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue within the peritoneal cavity. Existing treatment options, primarily surgery and hormonal therapy, are limited …
Bisphenol S (BPS) is a chemical analogue of Bisphenol A (BPA) used in the production of hard plastics, textiles, and thermal papers. As the use of BPA has declined, BPS …
Bisphenols and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are ubiquitous environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals with widespread human exposure and growing concern regarding their reproductive toxicity. This review integrates current experimental and epidemiologic …
Mangroves are valuable reservoirs of diverse phytochemicals with significant therapeutic potential. Beyond their ecological roles, these bioactive compounds can influence epigenetic mechanisms, heritable changes in gene expression without alterations in …
Decidualization of human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) precedes the successful implantation of a human embryo. Improper decidualization has been reported in numerous conditions associated with infertility including endometriosis. Multiple pathways, …
The pathogenesis and progression of endometriosis may involve a complex combination of multiple factors, including chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. Hormonal therapy, the current standard for pharmacotherapy in endometriosis, causes …
Phthalates (PAEs), typical endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that accumulate in the human body to induce reproductive toxicity, have epidemiological links to endometriosis (EM), but the underlying micro-mechanisms remain unclear. Ferroptosis is …
Environmental exposures are increasingly linked to reproductive dysfunctions such as endometriosis, ovarian insufficiency, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Through endocrine disruption, oxidative stress, and epigenetic pathways, heavy metals (such as …
