Endometrioid Versus Seromucinous Borderline Ovarian Tumors: Divergent Molecular Signatures and a Shared Role as Precursors to Endometrioid Carcinoma.

Endometrioid borderline tumors (EBTs) and seromucinous borderline tumors (SMBTs) are rare ovarian neoplasms with distinct histologic features. However, the molecular profiles of EBTs and SMBTs remain incompletely characterized. We performed …

Adenomyosis Pathophysiology, Diagnostic Advances, and Therapeutic Options.

Adenomyosis is a heterogeneous, nonmalignant uterine disorder characterized by ectopic endometrium within the myometrium, leading to abnormal uterine bleeding, dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and subfertility. Once considered a disease of …

Genetically-predicted placental gene expression links to uterine fibroids and endometriosis.

Mother-to-child disease transmission begins in utero, with the placenta playing a critical role in pregnancy and offspring health. Uterine leiomyomata (fibroids, UFs) and endometriosis (ENDO) are common gynecologic diseases that …

Assessing endometrial microbiota in endometriosis: culturomics and sequencing analysis of receptive-phase tissue.

Endometriosis has been associated with alterations in the reproductive tract microbiota, yet studies focusing on the endometrial microbiome remain inconsistent, partly due to the low-biomass nature of this niche and …

Evaluating Subtypes of Endometriosis in Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta) Using Clinical Findings and Immunohistochemistry.

Endometriosis is defined as endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. It is a debilitating, complex, and underdiagnosed condition, impacting approximately 10%-15% of reproductive-aged women worldwide. Endometriosis is associated with chronic …

Endometrial organoids to model benign disorders affecting the endometrium.

The endometrium is a highly dynamic and complex tissue lining the uterus, playing a central role in reproductive health. Despite its importance, the pathogenesis of many benign endometrial disorders remains …

A preliminary single-cell map of endometriosis suggests roles for fibroblast metabolism and macrophage polarization in disease progression.

Understanding the diagnostic process of endometriosis in primary care: An interview study with general practitioners in Denmark using clinical vignettes.

Endometriosis is a chronic, systemic condition affecting 5-10% of individuals assigned female at birth. Due to its non-specific symptoms, diagnosis is often delayed.

Surgical management of ovarian endometrioma in a patient with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: a case report.

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an ultra-rare (prevalence ~ 1:2 million), devastating genetic disorder characterized by progressive heterotopic ossification. Crucially, surgical trauma is a potent trigger for catastrophic new bone …

Harnessing mangroves for epigenetic therapies.

Mangroves are valuable reservoirs of diverse phytochemicals with significant therapeutic potential. Beyond their ecological roles, these bioactive compounds can influence epigenetic mechanisms, heritable changes in gene expression without alterations in …
