Vitamin D a fat-soluble steroid hormone signals through Vitamin D Receptors (VDRs) located throughout the ovaries, uterus, placenta, hypothalamus, and pituitary gland, influencing immune regulation and female reproductive physiology. This …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) has been implicated in immune dysregulation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and fibrosis. Data on baseline secretion of TGF-β isoforms …
Growing evidence highlights the role of microbiota, including those of the gut, reproductive tract, and endometrial tissue, as critical functional drivers in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM). Studies have revealed …
Endometriosis is heterogeneous, and evidence for individualised postoperative management is limited. We assessed whether postoperative hormonal therapy exposure is associated with one-year changes in pain domains after first-time endometriosis surgery …
The need for reliable preventive medicine tools is growing, especially for diseases with long diagnostic delays, such as endometriosis, which can take several years to diagnose. In this context, cellulose …
Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues represent an invaluable resource for both basic and clinical research due to their stable preservation of tissue architecture and molecular integrity. Multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) using tyramide …
Obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly syndrome was first identified by Purslow in 1922 as a result of abnormal embryologic development of the Müllerian (paramesonephric) and Wolffian (mesonephric) ducts. The …
Endometriosis is a chronic disease that may require surgical intervention under certain circumstances. Although the condition itself is associated with impaired fertility in 30-50% of affected individuals, surgical treatment may …
Early diagnosis of ovarian cancer remains one of the most important unmet needs in gynecologic oncology because survival is strongly stage-dependent and most patients still present with disseminated disease. Conventional …
The clinical management of endometriosis encounters a significant obstacle: existing therapies inadequately address both the inhibition of ectopic lesion proliferation and the mitigation of the neuroinflammation associated with chronic pain. …
