Anti-NRP1 peptide-engineered ROS/pH dual-responsive nanoparticles for Alpelisib delivery regulate Sema3A-NRP1/PI3K-AKT signaling to balance oxidative stress and inhibit angiogenesis in endometriosis.
Endometriosis progression is driven by oxidative stress and excessive angiogenesis within an inflammatory microenvironment. To overcome these challenges, we designed ROS/pH dual-responsive Alpelisib-loaded nanoparticles (Alp@TAT-AT7-NPs) functionalized with an anti-NRP1 peptide …
Enhanced detection of vascularization in rectal endometriosis: A comparative study of microvascular flow and power Doppler.
Conventionally, rectal endometriotic nodules have been considered as poorly vascularized. However, new, more sensitive, Doppler techniques have been developed recently for assessing microvascularization. These new techniques might allow microvascularity in …
Out of pocket expenditure incurred by couples seeking infertility services at tertiary level facilities in India.
Background and objectives Diagnosis and treatment of infertility, mostly sought at tertiary facilities, contribute to substantial out-of-pocket expenditure (OOPE). This study estimated OOPE among couples seeking care for endometriosis, male …
