Endometriosis-derived exosomal MicroRNA-125b-5p downregulates phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase/Protein Kinase B signaling pathways via vascular endothelial growth factor to decelerate endometriosis progression.

Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic enigmatic gynecological disorder which pathogenesis have not been fully elucidated. Exosomes have been proven to participate in endometriosis. However, the role of exosomes in the …

Comparative evaluation of ACRS and PRP on inflammation and lesion activity in a rat model of peritoneal endometriosis.

This study aimed to comparatively evaluate the therapeutic effects of Autologous Cytokine-Rich Serum (ACRS) and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in a rat model of endometriosis, focusing on inflammation, angiogenesis, and myofibroblast …

Phthalate Metabolite, Mono(2-Ethyl-5-Hydroxyhexyl) Phthalate (MEHHP), Promotes Uterine-Fibroid-Associated Phenotypes in Myometrial Stem Cell-Derived 3D Organoids.

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 …

HAGLR promotes endometriosis progression via the miR-185-5p/VEGFA axis and serves as a potential diagnostic biomarker.

Hormonal treatment in endometriosis fails to prevent IL-6 increase and endometrium fibrosis but regulates levels of CYP17A, VEGF, and NFkB.

Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial-like tissue. This study aims to elucidate the effect of hormonal treatment in human endometriosis inflammation, angiogenesis and …

Unraveling the VEGF-ETS1 axis: a transcriptomic and single-cell analysis of angiogenesis in endometriosis.

Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder characterized by ectopic endometrial-like lesions, where aberrant angiogenesis is a hallmark driving lesion establishment and progression. However, the transcriptional mechanisms underlying pathological …

Investigation of endothelin-1 receptor antagonist bosentan in a rat endometriosis model.

The study aimed to investigate the roles of endothelin-1 and endothelin receptors in a rat endometriosis model and to demonstrate how bosentan (BOS), an endothelin receptor blocker, could potentially serve …

Beyond VEGF and TGF-β: A Comprehensive Review of Growth Factor Pathways in the Pathophysiology of Uterine Leiomyomas.

Uterine leiomyomas or fibroids, are non-cancerous smooth muscle proliferations of the uterus, occurring mostly in women of reproductive age. Their pathogenesis involves complex growth factor interactions that regulate cellular proliferation, …

The immunotherapy era in ovarian clear cell carcinoma: current evidence and future perspective.

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a rare, aggressive epithelial ovarian cancer subtype, accounting for approximately 10% of cases and associated with a poor prognosis due to chemoresistance and unique …

Altered miR-410-3p and Target Genes (PCDH8, VEGFA, NUMB) Expression in Ovarian Endometriosis: A Case-Control Study.

Endometriosis is a condition in which tissue similar to the endometrium grows outside the uterus. Angiogenesis plays an important role in endometriosis development. Bioinformatics analysis indicates that miR-410-3p is involved …
