Reproductive disorders such as endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are increasingly recognized as immune-mediated conditions, yet their immunopathology remains poorly understood. Menstrual blood, a noninvasive and biologically relevant sample, …
Endometriosis (EM) is associated with immune dysregulation, while dysfunction of natural killer (NK) cells is regarded as a key mechanism underlying immune escape and the persistent growth of ectopic lesions.
NK-cell dysfunction in endometriosis is suggested to contribute to the survival of ectopic endometrial tissue. However, the underlying causes of this impairment remain unclear. NK cells are divided into: CD56+bright, …
Endometriosis (EM) is associated with immune dysregulation, while dysfunction of natural killer (NK) cells is regarded as a key mechanism underlying immune escape and the persistent growth of ectopic lesions.
Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) occurs in 10-15% of IVF cycles with evidence from a few randomized control trials (RCTs) that local endometrial injury (LEI) leads to higher live birth rates …
Endometriosis, which affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age, is a complex inflammatory disease with significant immune system disturbances caused by an inadequate immune response to retrograde menstruation and …
The immunology of fertilization, implantation and pregnancy is based on a complex balance between maternal immune tolerance and a controlled inflammatory response. Adaptation of the maternal immune system is essential …
Endometriosis (ENDO) is a painful, chronic gynecological disease widely affecting women globally. While traditionally classified as a hormonal disorder, ENDO is now increasingly recognized as a multifaceted immune-mediated syndrome driven …
Helixor A, an anticancer drug, has an immunostimulatory effect that increases T and natural killer (NK) cell activity in patients with cancer and endometriosis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying its …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by dysregulated innate immunity, particularly impaired cytotoxic function of natural killer (NK) cells. As pivotal effectors of the innate immune response, NK …
