Gynecologic disorders, such as cervical and ovarian tumors, uterine fibroids, and endometriosis, present significant clinical challenges due to frequent recurrence, emerging chemoresistance, and undesirable effects associated with prolonged hormonal treatments. …
Endometriosis is a pathological condition characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial cells, leading to chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Epidemiological studies have associated exposure to dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), …
Endometriosis is a common benign gynecologic disease in women of reproductive age, and its manifestations remarkably decrease quality of life. Lactate, as a metabolite, exerts prominent effects across a wide …
Monocytes, as essential components of the immune system, play a pivotal role in regulating immune responses throughout the menstrual cycle. Their cytokine secretion is integral to immune modulation, influencing processes …
Many experimental and clinical studies published so far demonstrate that melatonin-produced mainly by the pineal gland located deep in the middle of the brain, between the two cerebral hemispheres, and …
Ovarian endometrioma (OMA), the most prevalent and clinically consequential subtype of endometriosis, represents a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by ectopic endometrial-like lesions. This condition manifests as progressive dysmenorrhea, ovarian reserve …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition often associated with infertility. The role of granzymes as cytotoxic proteases and immune regulators in endometriosis remains poorly understood. This study evaluated serum and …
The female reproductive system (FRS) exhibits unique immunological characteristics, balancing defense against pathogens with tolerance to sperm and semi-allogeneic embryos. Key players include decidual natural killer (dNK) cells, immune checkpoint …
Endometriosis is a prevalent, estrogen-dependent, inflammatory disease that impairs fertility via hormonal dysregulation, immune dysfunction, oxidative stress/ferroptosis, genetic and epigenetic alterations, and microbiome imbalance. We summarize multi-omics insights and clinical …
Endometriosis, traditionally viewed as a gynecological condition, is increasingly recognized as a systemic disease due to its frequent association with inflammatory and autoimmune comorbidities. Recent molecular and genetic insights reveal …
