Endometriosis (ENDO) is a painful, chronic gynecological disease widely affecting women globally. While traditionally classified as a hormonal disorder, ENDO is now increasingly recognized as a multifaceted immune-mediated syndrome driven …
The female reproductive system (FRS) exhibits unique immunological characteristics, balancing defense against pathogens with tolerance to sperm and semi-allogeneic embryos. Key players include decidual natural killer (dNK) cells, immune checkpoint …
Adenomyosis often coexists with endometriosis, which primarily involves the ovary and can lead to endometriosis‑associated ovarian cancers, most commonly endometrioid and clear‑cell carcinomas. Ovarian squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) arising in …
Long interspersed element 1 (LINE-1) retrotransposons are repetitive sequences that can move within the genome by an autonomous mechanism. To limit their mutagenic potential, benign cells restrict LINE-1 expression through …
This review investigates the therapeutic potential of butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) produced by gut microbiota, in the prevention and treatment of various gynecological diseases, including polycystic ovary syndrome …
Ovarian squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a rare entity among primary ovarian cancers. This type of cancer typically originates from the transformation of mature cystic teratomas, commonly known as dermoid …
Endometriosis is a common estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease with a chronic course and a tendency to recur. The association between endometriosis and cancer has been studied for several years. Numerous reports …
Clear cell carcinomas are rare and relatively chemo-insensitive ovarian cancers with a characteristic molecular pathogenesis. Alterations in ARID1A, a component of the multiprotein chromatin remodeling complex SWI/SNF, are likely early …
Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a less common subtype accounting for approximately 5% of all epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs). Clinical experience and research findings confirm the remarkable differences in …
