The establishment of a successful pregnancy depends on proper embryo development and coordinated endometrial differentiation, particularly through the process of decidualization. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), especially those derived from endometrial …
Women with endometriosis are at increased risk of preeclampsia and eclampsia, leading causes of maternal mortality among Black women in the United States. Despite this, Black women are significantly underdiagnosed …
Neonatal uterine bleeding (NUB) has been hypothesized as a relatively common early-life event potentially linked to the later development of endometriosis through retrograde menstruation. However, its true prevalence and biological …
Maternal chronic conditions are implicated as risk factors for congenital anomalies, but few studies have assessed reproductive conditions such as endometriosis. Given the association between endometriosis and infertility requiring fertility …
Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) is widely used to screen for embryo aneuploidy, enabling the selection and transfer of genetically normal embryos. Despite its potential to improve clinical outcomes, …
Female reproductive disorders present significant challenges worldwide. Transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), a structurally diverse class of non-coding RNAs mainly comprising tRNA halves (tiRNAs) and tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs), have emerged …
Vitamin D a fat-soluble steroid hormone signals through Vitamin D Receptors (VDRs) located throughout the ovaries, uterus, placenta, hypothalamus, and pituitary gland, influencing immune regulation and female reproductive physiology. This …
Endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory disease, has been associated with adverse pregnancy and perinatal outcomes, which in turn have been linked to long-term neurological morbidity in the offspring. This study aimed …
Background/Objective: RNA modifications, including N6-methyladenosine (m6A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), 7-methylguanosine (m7G), N1-methyladenosine (m1A), pseudouridine (Ψ), N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C), 5-methoxycarbonylmethyl-2-thiouridine (mcm5s2U) and adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing, constitute a critical layer of post-transcriptional regulation that …
Bisphenol S (BPS) is a chemical analogue of Bisphenol A (BPA) used in the production of hard plastics, textiles, and thermal papers. As the use of BPA has declined, BPS …
