A healthy reproductive system is fundamental to human fertility. N6-adenosine methylation (m6A), the most prevalent RNA modification in eukaryotes, plays a critical role in regulating RNA metabolism, including splicing, degradation, …
Ovarian fibrosis is increasingly recognized as a pivotal factor contributing to ovarian aging, dysfunction and female infertility. It results from chronic or repetitive ovarian injury, such as that caused by …
Depression rates are higher in women, especially during periods of hormonal fluctuation. Reproductive system disorders (RSDs), which often disrupt hormonal balance, may contribute to this mental health burden. Despite their …
Mitophagy is a catabolic mechanism that selectively degrades damaged mitochondria and precisely modulates mitochondrial content, thereby maintaining intracellular homeostasis under stress conditions. To date, most reviews on mitophagy have predominantly …
Ferroptosis, as an iron-dependent programmed cell death, plays a significant role in reproductive system diseases. It's involved in the pathological processes of various reproductive system diseases by affecting the survival …
Background Artificial insemination with donor sperm (AID) is an established treatment option for various indications. The outcome of such treatment is likely to be affected by different female factors and …
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone pulsatility is under the influence of hypothalamic neuropeptides, especially neurons expressing kisspeptin, neurokinin B, and dynorphin. These hypothalamic cells are called KNDy neurons. By integrating hormonal and environmental …
Recent advances in microbiome research have illuminated the complex bidirectional interactions between gut health and reproductive well-being. Understanding the gut microbiome's influence on the reproductive system and vice versa reveals …
Female infertility, affecting millions worldwide, involves complex molecular mechanisms such as chronic inflammation, impaired cellular death, and protein regulation. This study explores how the cytokine IL-6, the autophagy marker LC3, …
Ferroptosis is a novel kind of regulated cell death that occurs when redox equilibrium is disrupted, leading to iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis is defined by the buildup of deleterious lipid …
