Pregnancy requires a supportive uterine environment facilitated by steroid hormone-regulated differentiation of endometrial stromal fibroblasts into decidual cells and tight control of inflammation. Serum response factor (SRF) is a widely …
Thoracic endometriosis syndrome is a rare form of endometriosis in which endometrial tissue is thought to migrate to the lungs and, with the onset of menstruation, the ectopic foci bleed, …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic gynecological condition associated with infertility, oxidative stress, and altered metabolic regulation. Follicular fluid (FF) reflects the microenvironment of the developing oocyte, and changes in …
Acute non-traumatic pelvic pain represents a frequent and complex diagnostic dilemma in pre-menopausal females presenting to the emergency department due to overlapping symptomatology across pregnancy and non-pregnancy related causes. Radiologists …
Background/Objectives: Oxidative stress is a critical factor in the development and progression of endometriosis. Granulosa cells, which reside near oocytes in follicles, exhibit steroidogenic activity, and, consequently, influence oocyte quality. …
Steroid receptor coactivators (SRCs) are master regulators of nuclear receptor signaling and play essential roles in female reproductive physiology. By integrating steroid hormone signaling with growth factors and metabolic pathways, …
BackgroundThis study aimed to compare the expression patterns of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α in ovarian cyst capsules and endometrial tissue samples from patients with and without endometriosis to evaluate its potential as …
To evaluate whether deeper histologic sections and tissue-blocking practices improve the diagnosis of endometriosis in peritoneal biopsies. We retrospectively reviewed 148 peritoneal biopsy cases with clinical suspicion of endometriosis from …
A 57-year-old woman (G2P2) with a history of total hysterectomy for endometriosis 30 years earlier, presented for a routine gynecological examination without complaints. Speculum examination revealed an erythematous, raised plaque …
Background: Background: Endometriosis affects 10% of women of reproductive age. Despite the well-known association between endometriosis and infertility, the mechanisms underlying this association remain to be elucidated. Methods: Implantation and …
