Ghrelin, a peptide composed of 28 amino acids, is recognized for its role in regulating appetite and energy balance. Recently, it has also been identified as an immunomodulator that could …
Endometriosis is hypothesized to result from retrograde menstruation where cell debris including endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) travel through the fallopian tubes. This chronic inflammatory disease is characterized by inflammatory and …
Current interventions for endometriosis mainly involve hormone therapies but have limited efficacy and unacceptable side effects due to the lack of selectivity to distinguish between endometriosis and endometrial tissues. Elucidating …
The human endometrium is a dynamic tissue that lines the uterus and undergoes constant remodeling, making it especially susceptible to gynecological diseases like endometriosis and endometrial cancer. The molecular mechanisms …
A case of a Nuck canal cyst (NCC) associated with vestigial endometriosis is presented. An ultrasound scan revealed a multicystic sac in the right groin of a 42-year-old woman who …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth and proliferation of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, leading to inflammation. Although low‑dose contraceptive pills are widely used …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a prevalent estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial tissue. Central to its pathophysiology, peritoneal CD14hi macrophages exhibit a pro-EMS phenotype and drive disease progression. …
Pingchong Jiangni recipe (PJR) is a Chinese herbal formula that has been used clinically for decades in the treatment of endometriosis, with effects such as shrinking the lesions and reducing …
Endometriosis markedly compromises female fertility, and although endometrial dysfunction likely plays a role in this pathology, its precise mechanistic contributions remain poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the decidualization …
The fibrosis mechanism in endometriosis is not elucidated. We investigated the role of eosinophil in fibrosis of endometriosis. The endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) and endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) were subjected …
