We aimed to generate immortalized stromal cell lines from the ovarian and fallopian tube tissues of a single patient using Sendai virus (SeV) vectors and identify candidate stromal genes involved …
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 …
Endometriosis represents a prevalent gynaecological disorder, impacting around 10% of the female population and affecting as many as 50% of women who are facing challenges with infertility. The pathogenesis of …
Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue in the myometrium, causing chronic pelvic pain and abnormal bleeding. Although dysregulated microRNAs (miRNAs) in stromal cells …
Pregnancy requires a supportive uterine environment facilitated by steroid hormone-regulated differentiation of endometrial stromal fibroblasts into decidual cells and tight control of inflammation. Serum response factor (SRF) is a widely …
Mare endometrosis is a chronic degenerative condition of the endometrium, primarily characterized by fibrosis, involving interactions among fibroblasts, immune cells, and epithelial cells regulated by cytokines and growth factors. T …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by progressive fibrosis, which is closely associated with clinical symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and infertility. While myofibroblast activation is central to fibrogenesis, the …
The ascent of novel alternative methods (NAMs) in drug development spotlights the dual needs for improved biological fidelity to in vivo along with reproducibility, especially in regulatory applications. The need …
Equine endometrosis is a chronic degenerative condition with fibrosis being one of the most significant characteristics. A growing body of evidence indicates the critical role of interleukin (IL)-17 in fibrotic …
Adenomyosis and endometriosis, two common estrogen-dependent benign gynecological disorders usually present with overlapping symptoms, such as pain and infertility. These two conditions often co-exist and are associated with poor reproductive …
