Over 75% of failed pregnancies involve implantation defects. Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2) is an adaptor protein involved in signal transduction and cell communication. Here we show that the …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. A common feature of this pathology is the impaired decidualization of endometrial stromal …
The uterus is a complex organ that requires precise signaling networks to mediate functions necessary for homeostasis and reproductive processes. The transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) superfamily regulates integral signaling …
Decidual stromal cells (DSCs) are involved in immunoregulatory mechanisms that prevent fetal rejection by the mammalian maternal immune system. Recent studies using single-cell RNA sequencing demonstrated the existence of different …
A eutopic endometrium in endometriosis shows altered immune responses, including abnormalities of NK cells and expression of plasma cells, related to reproductive issues. This study investigated the counts of CD56-positive …
Patients with adenomyosis not only experience a decrease in quality of life as a result of dysmenorrhea and severe monthly flow but they are also rendered infertile. Pregnancy rates are …
Pregnancy is a special time during which some benign hormonally-responsive lesions could grow and mimic malignancy on clinical evaluation and imaging. Though decidualization of ovarian endometrioma has been reported, little …
Endometriosis, the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, causes chronic pain and infertility in 10 % of reproductive-aged women worldwide. Unfortunately, no permanent cure exists, and current medical and …
Endometrial collagen I undergoes dynamic degradation and remodelling in response to endometrial stromal cell (ESC) decidualization and embryo implantation. However, excessive collagen I deposition in the endometrium during the implantation …
Background/Objectives: Adenomyosis is a benign condition where ectopic endometrial glandular tissue is found within the uterine myometrium. Its impact on women's reproductive outcomes is substantial, primarily due to defective decidualization, …
