Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is essential for neuronal survival and development, and is also involved in oogenesis, follicle recruitment, and germ cell survival, which could impact reproduction. However, in humans, …
Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory, estrogen‑dependent benign gynecological disorder. A subset of patients with EM may subsequently develop endometriosis‑associated ovarian cancer (EAOC), implying a biological continuum between these two …
β-Glucuronidase (β-G, EC 3.2.1.31) reverses phase II glucuronidation, and microbial β-G at the gut-liver interface reactivates biliary and circulating conjugates, closing enterohepatic loops for drugs, estrogens, bile acids, and bilirubin. …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory and sex steroid hormone-dependent gynaecologic disease, characterised by endometrial cell proliferation outside the uterine cavity, often accompanied by fibrosis, progesterone resistance, and high recurrence despite …
In this narrative review, we summarize current evidence regarding the endometrium undergoes cyclic remodeling driven by estrogen (E2) and progesterone (P4) signaling, with precise coordination essential for receptivity and pregnancy …
Endometriosis causes pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea (DYS), dyspareunia, and fertility issues. Linustedastat (OG-6219) is an oral, selective inhibitor of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (HSD17β1), an enzyme involved in local estradiol biosynthesis. …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder in women of reproductive age, often presenting with pelvic pain and infertility. Its progression is closely linked to estrogen levels. While hormonal therapies …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, and altered hormone metabolism. Although gut microbiota-derived metabolites have been implicated in shaping immune microenvironments and lesion development, the …
Relugolix is an oral, non-peptide gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor antagonist administered as once-daily combination therapy (relugolix-CT; 40 mg relugolix, 1 mg estradiol, 0.5 mg norethindrone acetate) to reduce endometriosis symptoms while …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by ectopic implantation of endometrial-like tissue, primarily on the ovaries, pelvic peritoneum, and bowel. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) …
