The correlation between epigenetic alterations and the pathophysiology of human infertility is progressively being elucidated with the discovery of an increasing number of target genes that exhibit altered expression patterns …
In endometriosis, the tissues similar to the endometrial tissue attaches outside the uterine cavity, causing inflammation and fibrosis. The retrograde menstruation theory is the most plausible mechanism, though the detailed …
Endometriosis is a chronic, progressive inflammatory disease that occurs in approximately 10% of women of reproductive age, resulting in a decreased quality of life due to dysmenorrhea, chronic pain, and …
Endometriosis (EM) is a major cause of infertility, but the pathogenesis and mechanisms are not yet fully elucidated. MiR-19b-3p is involved in many diseases, but its functional role in EM-associated …
Adenomyosis is characterized by the invasion of endometrial glands and stroma into the myometrium. Its clinical manifestations often include dysmenorrhoea, excessive menstrual bleeding and infertility. Reduced pregnancy and live birth …
HOXA10 belongs to the homeobox gene family and is essential for uterine biogenesis, endometrial receptivity, embryo implantation, and stromal cell decidualization. Available evidence suggests that the expression of HOXA10 is …
The increasing incidence of cesarean sections has led to a higher prevalence of cesarean scar defects (CSDs), predominantly characterized by postmenstrual bleeding in affected women. CSD manifests in various forms, …
Leptin is not only the main regulator of energy balance, but also it affects the reproductive and immune systems. Leptin and its receptors are expressed in the endometrium and are …
Chronic overlapping pain conditions (COPCs) are a subset of chronic pain conditions commonly comorbid with one another and more prevalent in women and individuals assigned female at birth (AFAB). Pain …
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two closely related, estrogen-dependent, benign gynecological diseases. The available evidence on their common pathogenesis and association is limited and often does not address the heterogeneity of …
