Chemokines and Their Association With Symptom Severity in Women With Endometriosis.
Various chemokines have been linked to endometriosis. Notably, chemokines such as CCL2, CXCL8, and CXCL1 have also been shown to promote nociception. In this study, we investigated whether increased serum …

Cutaneous endometriosis, a rare entity, is a type of extra pelvic endometriosis observed in 0.5%-1% of women. The most common sites include the abdominal wall, umbilicus, vulva, and extremities. It …
Multi-ancestry genome-wide association study of endometriosis and its clinical manifestations in ~1.4 million women: translating gene discovery into pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic targets.
We conducted a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study of endometriosis and adenomyosis in almost 1.4 million women, including 105,869 cases, aiming to expand endometriosis loci discovery across ancestries, dissect symptom-specific effects, …
Dysfunction of natural killer cells promotes immune escape and disease progression in endometriosis.
Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by dysregulated innate immunity, particularly impaired cytotoxic function of natural killer (NK) cells. As pivotal effectors of the innate immune response, NK …
