Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disorder for which metabolic reprogramming has emerged as a central pathological feature. Driven by genetic, epigenetic, and microenvironmental stressors, ectopic endometrial cells undergo …
Estradiol (E2), a sex steroid hormone molecule, plays a key role in regulating the actin and shape dynamics of cells in a multitude of normal and pathophysiological conditions. While cytoskeletal …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease including aberrant local steroidogenesis, inflammation, angiogenesis, oxidative stress, and prostaglandin-mediated pain. Given the elevated adrenergic receptor expression in endometriotic lesions and the potential …
Women are less likely to have a stroke compared with men, but certain sex-specific risk factors can increase their risk for ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke later in life. The 2024 …
Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer arising from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS). Despite growing clinical awareness, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully …
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a complex multifactorial infectious disorder of the female reproductive tract, associated with severe long-term sequelae including infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and chronic pelvic pain, as well …
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in women, and its development results from both traditional risk factors and female-specific determinants that emerge across the life course. …
Adenomyosis frequently coexists with endometriosis and shares overlapping symptoms; however, the symptom burden of isolated adenomyosis remains insufficiently defined. The aim of this study was to compare the severity and …
The pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM) remains intricate and multifactorial. This study aimed to investigate the biological functions of microRNA-769-5p (miR-769-5p) in an in vitro model of EM. Serum was obtained …
