We investigated whether ovarian endometriomas uniformly express functional FSH receptors (FSHR) and respond to FSH by activating transcriptional programs that drive aromatase and steroid hormone production. Endometrioma cyst capsules were …
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are vascular anomalies defined by direct communications between arteries and veins with bypassing of the capillary network. Such lesions may be congenital or acquired. In the uterus, …
Estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and progesterone receptor (PGR) are essential regulators for endometrial receptivity and embryo implantation. Their expression is dysregulated in women with endometriosis-associated infertility. However, the relationship between …
Pelvic pain has a significant impact on quality of life, especially when associated with benign pelvic diseases, such as endometriosis or chronic conditions leading to persistent discomfort. A substantial proportion …
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 …
Endometriosis is a benign condition driven by estrogen and inflammation in which endometrial-like tissue develops in ectopic locations. We aimed to determine whether non-steroidal agents acting on the WNT/beta-catenin signaling …
Cystic adenomyoma is a rare focal cystic variant of adenomyosis, and giant lesions are particularly uncommon. Malignant transformation has been reported in endometriosis-related disease, but the molecular features of cystic …
Endometriosis is a benign, estrogen-dependent condition affecting 6%-10% of women of reproductive age, typically involving pelvic organs but occasionally presenting in extrapelvic locations such as the umbilicus. We report a …
Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, yet its molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study investigated the expression of …
Endometriosis is an inflammatory estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by pain, dyspareunia, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. This is due to the invasion of different organs by endometrial tissue that causes inflammation, angiogenesis, and …
