This article presents a narrative review that explores the potential link between kisspeptin-a key regulator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis-and the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Kisspeptin plays a significant role in regulating …
We wished to ascertain if there is an association between neutrophil extracellular traps and endometriosis (EMS). We collected the lesional tissues and normal endometrium of 30 patients suffering from endometriosis. …
This study addresses the challenges in the early diagnosis of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) by exploring the potential role of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP14. By analyzing the GSE141549 dataset from …
Altered peristaltic and ciliary dysfunction is a feature of females with endometriosis. To further explore this premise, we examined the ampulla of rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) with and without spontaneous …
The family of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (17β-HSDs) occupies a prominent place due to its number of isoforms, which carry out a bidirectional transformation (reduction of a steroid carbonyl to alcohol and …
Endometriosis, an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory condition, afflicts reproductive-aged women. However, the underlying pathological mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is a critical enzyme involved in cellular metabolism and …
Endometriosis is a chronic, burdensome condition that is historically understudied. Consequently, there is a lack of understanding of the etiology of the disease and its associated symptoms, including infertility and …
Background: Inflammation and immune cell dysfunction are critical facilitators of endometriosis pathophysiology. Macrophages are renowned for stimulating lesion growth, vascularization, innervation, and pain generation. By combining macrophages and endometriotic cells, …
Endometriosis is a multifaceted disorder with genetic, immune, inflammatory, and multifactorial origins. Vitamin B6 serves as a pivotal coenzyme in various metabolic pathways involving lipids, hemes, nucleic acids, proteins, and …
Shaofu Zhuyu decoction has been widely used to treat gynecological diseases; however, its mechanism of action in endometriosis remains unclear. We analyzed Shaofu Zhuyu decoction's chemical composition using ultra-high performance …
