Endometriosis is traditionally conceptualized as a pelvic lesion-centered disease; however, mounting evidence indicates it is a chronic, systemic, and multifactorial inflammatory disorder. This review examines the molecular dialog between ectopic …
Female infertility is a multifactorial condition with complex biological and clinical underpinnings. Biologically, female-related infertility may stem from disruptions in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis, impaired folliculogenesis, oocyte maturation defects, uterine …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic, inflammatory, estrogen-dependent disease that has historically been underdiagnosed, especially in patients with unexplained infertility. On average, diagnosis is delayed by 11 years, underscoring the need …
Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles that mediate intercellular communication by transporting microRNAs, proteins, and lipids. Generated through Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport (ESCRT)-dependent mechanisms or ESCRT-independent pathways, exosomes are …
Upon exposure to biofluids, engineered nanoparticles (NPs) spontaneously form reproducible biomolecular coronas via selective diverse biomolecule adsorption. The corona characterization of metabolites poses greater analytical challenges than proteins due to …
Menstrual blood (MB), once thought of as nothing more than biological waste, has now come to be regarded as a noninvasive and low-cost diagnostic tool with great potential for women's …
Objectives: To evaluate the impact of hormonal therapy on the evolution of painful symptoms in premenopausal women with adenomyosis, with or without concomitant endometriosis, over an 18-month follow-up period. This …
Endometriosis, traditionally viewed as a gynecological condition, is increasingly recognized as a systemic disease due to its frequent association with inflammatory and autoimmune comorbidities. Recent molecular and genetic insights reveal …
Sex-related differences influence key biological processes relevant to biomaterials research, including tissue regeneration, immune response, drug metabolism, and relevant diseases. Despite increasing recognition of sex as a critical biological variable, …
To investigate the prevalence of various ultrasound morphologies of rectosigmoid endometriosis (RSE) nodules according to the International Deep Endometriosis Analysis (IDEA) consensus, and their potential association with distinct clinical phenotypes …
