Mechanism of quercetin in the treatment of endometriosis based on network pharmacology and transcriptome sequencing.

TMEM119 Links to Ovarian Endometriosis Progression via MAPK-Mediated Suppression of Ectopic Endometrial Stromal Cell Senescence.

Transmembrane protein TMEM119 has been implicated in tumor progression (e.g., ovarian cancer), but its role and underlying mechanism in ovarian endometriosis (EM) remain elusive. Thus, this study aimed to investigate …

Natural products modulate programmed cell death signaling mechanism for treating endometriosis: a review.

Endometriosis (EMs) is a gynecological inflammatory disease that depends on estrogen. Its chief symptoms include dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, reduced fertility, and pelvic masses. Although various hormonal therapies and surgical …

Investigation of endothelin-1 receptor antagonist bosentan in a rat endometriosis model.

The study aimed to investigate the roles of endothelin-1 and endothelin receptors in a rat endometriosis model and to demonstrate how bosentan (BOS), an endothelin receptor blocker, could potentially serve …

Therapeutic potential of epigallocatechin gallate in gynecologic cancer, endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome: a mechanistic and translational perspective.

Tea, among the most widely consumed beverages worldwide, is rich in polyphenolic compounds known as catechins, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). This review aims to synthesize recent findings and ongoing controversies …

Network pharmacology prediction of UA in targeting endometriosis progression to endometrial cancer.

Endometriosis is a gynecological disorder predominantly affecting women of reproductive age and is considered a potential risk factor for the development of endometrial cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the …

Integrative transcriptomic analysis identifies shared EndMT-related gene signatures in endometriosis and recurrent miscarriage.

Endometriosis (EMs) and recurrent miscarriage (RM) represent major reproductive health challenges. This study investigates the involvement of endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) in these conditions through integrative bioinformatics analysis, focusing on the …

IL-6 Inhibits Invasion in a Murine Model of Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. It affects 10-15% of reproductive aged women, causing pelvic pain and infertility. Existing …

Helixor A enhances natural killer cell activity by induction of PAI-1 expression through the p38/MAPK signaling pathway.

Helixor A, an anticancer drug, has an immunostimulatory effect that increases T and natural killer (NK) cell activity in patients with cancer and endometriosis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying its …

HOXC4 promotes proliferation of endometriotic stromal cells via the SLIT2-ROBO1 axis.

Current interventions for endometriosis mainly involve hormone therapies but have limited efficacy and unacceptable side effects due to the lack of selectivity to distinguish between endometriosis and endometrial tissues. Elucidating …
