Endometriosis as a chronic endothelial disorder: thromboinflammation, vascular reprogramming, and systemic cardiovascular risk.

Microvascular thromboinflammation is a pervasive yet under-recognized driver of multisystem morbidity that links focal endothelial injury to distal organ dysfunction through interacting cellular and plasmatic networks. Contemporary paradigms remain fragmented: …

Chemokine CCL21 promotes the pathological progression of endometriosis by regulating inflammatory cytokine expression and activating the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Endometriosis, affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide, is widely recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease. Inflammation-related genes (IRGs) play a crucial role in the occurrence and progression of various …

The Follicular Immune Checkpoint: PD-1/PD-L1 and Immune Tolerance in Oocyte Competence and IVF Failure.

Oocyte formation occurs successfully within a meticulously controlled follicular environment characterized by well-documented endocrine, metabolic, and paracrine signals. Yet, the immunological landscape of the follicle and its role in influencing …

Interactions Between Neurotrophins and Ovarian Steroids in Endometriosis and Their Implications for Neuroangiogenesis: A Narrative Review.

Endometriosis is a long-term gynecological condition marked by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, which undergoes proliferation, bleeding, and regeneration. This disease is associated with disrupted steroid hormone …

Exploring the role of epigenetics in the processes related to the development of endometrosis in the mare.

Endometrosis is a chronic degenerative condition of the mare endometrium characterized by progressive fibrosis and glandular alterations that impair uterine function and fertility. Its pathogenesis involves persistent inflammation, the activation …

NK Cell Profiling: Expression of TIGIT and LAG3 as Immune Checkpoints in Advanced Endometriosis.

Endometriosis (EMS) is a gynecological condition that is associated with chronic pelvic pain and inflammation. Evidence supports the idea that natural killer (NK) cell dysfunction contributes to EMS pathogenesis; nevertheless, …

Interleukin-17A as a key driver for cell migration, proliferation, inflammation, and nerve infiltration in deep endometriosis.

Deep endometriosis (DE) is the most severe subtype of endometriosis, marked by aggressive cellular behavior and debilitating pain. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying DE pathogenesis remain poorly understood. In this …

Endometriosis-associated Pain: Mechanism, Neuroimmune Signature, and Translational Precision Strategies.

Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide and is a leading cause of chronic pelvic pain. Despite its high prevalence and substantial socioeconomic burden, the mechanisms underlying endometriosis-associated pain …

Clonal Evolution of Endometriosis to Peritoneal Endometrioid Carcinoma via PTEN Biallelic Inactivation: A Case Report With Integrated Genomic and Pathological Profiling.

Breaking the endometriosis-stroke axis: lesion-focused hydrogel reprogramming of thromboinflammatory networks.

Endometriosis is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by the ectopic implantation of endometrial-like tissue and accompanied by persistent pain and infertility. Beyond the pelvis, accumulating epidemiological evidence indicates that …
