Estrogen stimulates corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) expression in endometrial tissue, and CRH signaling contributes to inflammation and pain, suggesting a mechanistic role in endometriosis pathophysiology. We previously identified elevated CRH receptor-1 …
Endometriosis is a condition characterized by the growth of tissue similar to the uterine lining outside the uterus. This study aimed to evaluate certain sex hormones and determine the levels …
Ovarian function relies on a network of well-coordinated molecular mechanisms that regulate follicular development, oocyte maturation, ovulation, and corpus luteum function. When these processes are disrupted, infertility can result. Extracellular …
To determine the prevalence of pathology-proven endometriosis in patients with suspected adenomyosis undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH).
This study evaluates the association between patient age and postoperative complications following laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) for endometriosis and between patient age and operative time.
The present study aimed to investigate the association between two MutL homolog 1 (MLH1) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs63749795 and rs63749820, and the risk of endometriosis.
Hysterectomy is the regimen of choice for benign gynecologic diseases, including uterine myoma, adenomyosis, endometriosis, and genital prolapse. Surgeons choose hysterectomy methods based on clinical situations or patients' preferences. Even …
Inflammation is central to the pathogenesis of endometriosis. High-density lipoprotein (HDL)-related lipid ratios have been proposed as indicators of systemic metabolic inflammation, yet their associations with endometriosis status and ASRM …
This study investigates how phthalate exposure contributes to uterine fibroid (UF) development by studying the effects of the Mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl) phthalate (MEHHP), a metabolite of Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, on myometrial stem cells …
Pain in endometriosis involves not only nociceptive but also neuropathic and neurogenic components, reflecting its complex nature. Histamine, a biogenic amine, has emerged as a critical mediator connecting inflammation and …
