Endometriosis is increasingly recognized as a chronic systemic disorder extending beyond the classical estrogen-dependent paradigm, integrating metabolic, immune, fibrotic, and nociceptive pathways that sustain lesion persistence and refractory pelvic pain. …
Oocyte formation occurs successfully within a meticulously controlled follicular environment characterized by well-documented endocrine, metabolic, and paracrine signals. Yet, the immunological landscape of the follicle and its role in influencing …
This review aims to evaluate the potential of endometriosis models, especially patient-derived iPSC models, to gain deeper insights into the disease, thereby advancing our understanding and treatment of endometriosis. This …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder that may be influenced by bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine-disrupting chemical commonly found in food-contact plastics. BPA has been implicated in altered steroidogenesis, immune …
Ovarian endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder in which endometrial stromal cells are key cellular contributors to hormone-immune crosstalk and lesion persistence. Here, we isolated paired eutopic (NESC) and ectopic …
Online Health Communities (OHCs) are key platforms for people seeking medical information and social support. Individuals with persistent pain often use these communities to better understand their condition, share experiences, …
Endometrial dysfunction represents a central pathological factor underlying recurrent implantation failure and infertility. This review provides a comprehensive synthesis of the physiological basis of endometrial function, the pathological factors compromising …
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide, has been implicated in autoimmune diseases, endometriosis, tumors, and primary headaches, including migraine. The development of a novel, fast-acting CGRP receptor antagonist administered via …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a gynecological condition that is associated with chronic pelvic pain and inflammation. Evidence supports the idea that natural killer (NK) cell dysfunction contributes to EMS pathogenesis; nevertheless, …
The female reproductive tract (FRT), particularly the vagina, has traditionally been regarded as a sterile environment. However, it is now recognized that the vagina is a complex, dynamic ecosystem dominated …
