Female infertility diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), and recurrent implantation failure (RIF) have different clinical phenotypes. However, they might be epigenetically convergent, and …
The hyaluronic acid synthase (HAS) family participates in key physiological processes such as follicular development, oocyte maturation, ovulation, and embryo implantation by regulating the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, and plays …
To describe a novel laparoscopic technique, prophylactic ureteral suturing (PUS), developed to reinforce structurally weakened ureteral segments following extensive ureterolysis for deep endometriosis, to avoid segmental resection or reimplantation.
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 …
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), including bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, organochlorine pesticides, and heavy metal ions, pose serious threats to reproductive health by interfering with hormonal balance and molecular signaling pathways. Recent …
Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent gynecological disease manifested by cyclic pelvic pain and female infertility. Although many studies have shown that neoangiogenesis plays an essential role in the development of early …
The reproductive tract microbiome plays a pivotal role in female fertility, with Lactobacillus-dominated communities maintaining a protective, low-pH environment. Dysbiosis-characterized by a reduction in Lactobacillus species and overgrowth of anaerobes-is …
Endometriosis is characterized by the ectopic implantation of endometrial tissue affecting reproductive-aged women. Available therapies have still unmet needs namely due to recurrence rates and systemic side effects. Emerging evidence …
Endometriosis affects an estimated 25% to 75% of adolescent patients with chronic pelvic pain; the diagnosis is made surgically and treatment typically consists of hormone suppression and pain management strategies. …
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 …
