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 …
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, …
Steroid receptor coactivators (SRCs) are master regulators of nuclear receptor signaling and play essential roles in female reproductive physiology. By integrating steroid hormone signaling with growth factors and metabolic pathways, …
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 …
Monocytes, as essential components of the immune system, play a pivotal role in regulating immune responses throughout the menstrual cycle. Their cytokine secretion is integral to immune modulation, influencing processes …
Endometriosis (Endo) involves inflammation and angiogenesis within lesions, potentially causing embryo implantation failure. Paeonia lactiflora (PL) root exhibits anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory properties. This experiment investigated the therapeutic effects of PL …
Endometriosis is the extrauterine engraftment of endometrium-like tissue, causing chronic pain. Complex sensory-vascular-immune interactions, including growth factors, cytokines, and neuropeptides, are implicated in its pathophysiology, but the mechanisms remain unknown. …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a common chronic gynecological disorder affecting 5%-10% of reproductive-age women, often causing infertility, dyspareunia, pain, and limitations in physical and sexual activities. This condition is defined by …
Background and Objectives: Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) transfusions are a relatively new treatment method used in different fields of medicine, including the field of reproductive medicine. One of the applications …
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are debilitating gynecological conditions that severely affect the quality of life of women. Traditional diagnostic and treatment methods, including laparoscopic surgery and hormonal therapy, face significant limitations …
