Do activated fibroblasts expressing fibroblast activation protein-α (FAP) - which is traceable in positron emission topography/computed topography (PET/CT) - play a role in the microenvironment of endometriosis?
Endometriosis (EM) is a widely recognized disorder in gynecological endocrinology. Although hormonal therapies are frequently employed for EM, their side effects and outcome limitations underscore the need to explore the …
What is the hormone receptor profile of adenomyosis lesions in comparison to correctly located endometrium?
Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a clinical disorder with unknown pathogenesis with an incidence between 0.03% and 1% in women affected by cutaneous/scar endometriosis. We investigated the pathological, molecular cytogenetic …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Immunohistochemical analysis (IHC) revealed markedly elevated expression of IL6ST in endometrial tissue of patients …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a painful chronic condition in which the endometrium grows outside the uterus. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is critical to endometriosis progression, where cells lose epithelial traits and …
The C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index (CTI) is a promising new marker for evaluating the severity of inflammation. Endometriosis (EM) is a prevalent chronic inflammatory condition influenced by estrogen, primarily affecting …
Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification have recently been suggested as potential functional modulators in ovarian endometriosis, however, the function and mechanism of m6A-modified lncRNA in ovarian …
Inflammation disrupts the normal function of granulosa cells (GCs), which leads to ovarian dysfunction and fertility decline. Inflammatory conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), primary ovarian insufficiency (POI), endometriosis, …
Advancements in single-cell analyzis technologies, particularly single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting (FACS), have enabled the analyzis of cellular diversity by providing resolutions that were not available previously. …
