To evaluate the effects of letrozole alone and in combination with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist on inflammatory cytokines, folliculogenesis, and hormonal profiles in a rat model of surgically induced peritoneal …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory gynecologic disorder associated with pelvic pain and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have anti-inflammatory potential and may confer adjunctive …
Background: Endometriosis is associated with infertility and impaired assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes, potentially due to an altered follicular microenvironment characterized by chronic inflammation. This study investigates the systemic and …
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 …
Growing evidence suggests that women with endometriosis may be particularly vulnerable to disordered eating behaviors (DEBs) and clinically defined eating disorders (EDs). This narrative review aims at integrating and critically …
Chronic low-grade inflammation is increasingly recognized as a contributing factor to female infertility. Elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 are observed in ovarian conditions including …
This systematic review aimed to summarize the effects of astaxanthin (ASX) supplementation on oxidative stress, inflammation, and metabolic regulation in human studies. A systematic search was conducted in Scopus, Web …
Numerous abnormalities of the endometriosis eutopic endometrium contribute to the initiation and development of ectopic lesions. It is also believed that among the complex causes of the disease, systemic immunological …
The immunology of fertilization, implantation and pregnancy is based on a complex balance between maternal immune tolerance and a controlled inflammatory response. Adaptation of the maternal immune system is essential …
This study aims to explore the genetic connection between inflammatory cytokines (IC) and endometriosis (EMs) to provide insights for the treatment of EMs.
