Orphan nuclear receptor 4A1 (NR4A1) is a member of the NR4A subfamily that was initially discovered as an intermediate early gene expressed in response to stressors, including inflammatory agents. This …
Sex-related differences influence key biological processes relevant to biomaterials research, including tissue regeneration, immune response, drug metabolism, and relevant diseases. Despite increasing recognition of sex as a critical biological variable, …
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 …
We aimed to examine abnormal oxidative lipid levels and their related mechanisms in EM-associated infertility. Through liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry analysis, decreased levels of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), which have …
Endometriosis, chronic endometritis (CE), unexplained infertility (UI), and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) are gynecological conditions frequently associated with inflammation and alterations in the endometrial microbiome. The presence of bacterial vaginosis-associated …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecologic disease that needs newer and safer treatments. The proposed work aims to develop a nanosystem based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to actively target human endometriosis …
The immune system is hypothesized to contribute to the onset of endometriosis lesions. However, the precise mechanisms underlying its role are not yet known. We introduce a novel compartmental model …
Background: Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a rare but debilitating condition, often occurring in surgical scars after Caesarean sections. It is characterized by cyclic pain and a palpable mass, significantly …
Through a combination of single-cell/single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (sc/snRNA-seq) data analysis, immunohistochemistry, and primary macrophage studies, we have identified pathogenic macrophages characterized by TET3 overexpression (Toe-Macs) in three major human diseases associated …
To examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the substitution of surgical procedures in benign gynaecology in the Netherlands.
