Endometriosis, an atypical benign disorder, may disrupt epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) due to a dysregulated balance between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors. Ramipril, an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, is …
Fibrosis is a defining feature of endometriosis (EMS). Our previous single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) revealed myofibroblasts (MFBs) as the predominant cells in ectopic endometrium (ECE), mainly derived from fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition …
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 …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder causing significant morbidity and health burden. Recent evidence suggests that lipid metabolism, particularly remnant cholesterol (RC), may be involved in its development. RC-the cholesterol …
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 …
Endometriosis is a condition in which functional endometrial glands and stroma are found to grow outside the uterine cavity that can lead to symptoms like dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, adhesions, and infertility. …
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a well-established etiological agent for cervical cancer, yet its contribution to endometrial malignancies remains underrecognized and mechanistically distinct. This paper synthesizes current evidence to explain the …
Endometriosis, a disease affecting about one out of ten women, is characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. There is significant disease heterogeneity, but the pathophysiological …
To investigate the mechanism of medicinal cake-separated moxibustion in inhibiting the adhesion, invasion and angiogenesis of ectopic endometriotic tissues in endometriosis (EMs) rats through transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β)/Sma and Mad …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder with poorly understood mechanisms. Inflammatory proteins are hypothesized to play a causal role, but evidence remains limited. We performed a 2-sample Mendelian randomization study …
