Endometrioid carcinoma (EC) of the ovary represents a distinct subtype of epithelial ovarian cancers, comprising approximately 10%-20% of all ovarian malignancies. It is histologically similar to endometrial carcinoma of the …
Endometriosis, a chronic estrogen-dependent disease, is associated with a risk of developing gynecological cancers. The mechanisms of this association remain unclear, but emerging evidence implicates key signaling pathways, including PI3K/AKT/mTOR …
Pain is a common debilitating symptom reported in people with endometriosis. Yet, we do not have a good understanding of factors that may contribute to higher pain and worse psychosocial …
Xiao-Liu Tang (XLT), a formulation grounded in the Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory of Qi-Blood, has shown promise in alleviating endometriosis-related symptoms through clinical observations, with emerging evidence supporting its …
Estrogen receptor α (ESR1) is a pivotal regulator of endometrial homeostasis and reproductive function, yet the coregulators that fine tune its transcriptional activity remain incompletely defined. In this issue of …
Estrogen is a critical regulator of endometrial health. Aberrant estrogen stimulation can result in infertility, endometrial cancer, and endometriosis. Here, we identified Zinc Finger MIZ-Type Containing 1 (Zmiz1) as a …
Background: Endometriosis affects an estimated 10% of reproductive-aged women and is associated with increased ovarian cancer risk. While BRCA1/2 mutations are established risk factors for ovarian cancer, their association with …
Ovarian cancer (OC) is highly lethal, largely due to late diagnosis and chemoresistance. Endometriosis (EM) increases the risk of specific OC subtypes, but the molecular connection between the two diseases …
Sexological interviews in gynecological consultations remain a practice that is not routinely undertaken despite the importance of sexual health. The objectives of this study were to investigate patients' expectations from …
