Insights into the Molecular Mechanisms and Signaling Pathways of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) in the Pathophysiology of Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a disease characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside of the uterine corpus, often clinically presenting with pain and/or infertility. Ectopic lesions exhibit features characteristic …

D-chiro-inositol effectively counteracts endometriosis in a mouse model.

Endometriosis, a common condition affecting 5-10% of women of reproductive age, is the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to pain and infertility. Current treatments, such as surgery …

Corrigendum to "The role of miR-34c-5p/Notch in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in endometriosis" [Cellular Signalling, August 2020, Volume 72, 109666].

Endometriosis MDC: role of the radiologist.

Endometriosis presents a common and significant health burden affecting approximately 1 in 10 reproductive age patients who are assigned female at birth. Recently guidelines have begun shifting away from laparoscopy …

A Noninvasive Menstrual Blood-Based Diagnostic Platform for Endometriosis Using Digital Droplet Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay and Single-Cell RNA Sequencing.

Endometriosis is marked by the ectopic growth, spread, and invasion of endometrial tissue beyond the uterus, resulting in recurrent bleeding, pain, reproductive challenges, and the formation of nodules or masses. …

A new perspective on endometriosis: Integrating eQTL mendelian randomization with transcriptomics and single-cell data analyses.

Endometriosis is caused by the migration of endometrial cells to locations outside the uterine lining. Despite the increasing prevalence of endometriosis, there has been limited research on genetic effects, and …

miRNA-1229-5p promotes migration and invasion and suppresses apoptosis of endometrial cells via the STMN1/p38 MAPK axis in endometriosis.

Emerging evidence suggests that aberrantly expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) participate in endometriosis pathogenesis. miR-1229-5p participates in the pathogenesis of several disease, but its precise role and mechanism in endometriosis is unclear.

Suppression of endometriosis by miRNA-34a via inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-2: An alternative pathway to impede invasion.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) cleave proteins of extracellular matrix thus facilitating cellular invasion and cancer progression. High MMP-2 activity is frequently reported in several diseases including endometriosis and cancer. Endometriosis, though …

Expression of E-CADHERIN and miR-200b in Different Forms of Endometriosis.

Background/Objectives: Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is the process by which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal properties, which helps endometriotic cells migrate and invade. This study looks at the expression of E-CADHERIN, a …

Potential Modulatory Role of Phoenixin-14 in Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition of Endometriotic 12Z Cells.

Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a painful chronic condition in which the endometrium grows outside the uterus. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is critical to endometriosis progression, where cells lose epithelial traits and …
