Endometriosis is defined as the ectopic proliferation of endometrial cells. Aberrant signal transduction is present in ectopic endometriotic lesions, and bacteria also contributes to the development of endometriosis by transmitting …
Long non-coding RNA Urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1) is a pivotal regulator in the progression of endometriosis (EMs), yet its mechanistic role remains elusive. This study identified UCA1 as a factor …
Estrogen stimulates corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) expression in endometrial tissue, and CRH signaling contributes to inflammation and pain, suggesting a mechanistic role in endometriosis pathophysiology. We previously identified elevated CRH receptor-1 …
Ovarian endometriosis (OE) is a chronic, inflammatory gynecological disorder associated with sterility and an elevated risk of ovarian cancer. Despite its high prevalence, the complex molecular mechanisms governing OE pathogenesis …
Endometriosis, a chronic disease that affects about 10% of women of reproductive age, is characterized by severe pain and growth of endometrium-like tissues outside the uteri. Although several theories have …
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) has emerged as a highly promising therapeutic target due to its critical role in the pathogenesis and progression of endometriosis. To date, a variety …
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 …
Are there histological and immunohistochemical patterns of superficial peritoneal endometriotic lesions of symptomatic patients that characterize non-response to dienogest treatment and may suggest progesterone resistance?
Endometriosis is a complex gynecological disorder with prominent cellular heterogeneity, and its key pathogenic cell subsets and core molecular mechanisms remain elusive, which restricts the development of effective therapeutic strategies. …
Precise staging of endometriosis remains a clinical challenge, as current diagnosis depends almost entirely on laparoscopic visualization-an invasive procedure marked by considerable inter-observer disagreement and diagnostic delays. Existing non-invasive approaches, …
