This study evaluates the synergistic therapeutic effect of metformin (MET) combined with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) on endometriosis (EM) and investigates the involvement of the steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1) and mitogen-inducible …
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Despite several existing theories, the etiology and molecular mechanisms of endometriosis remain to be investigated. Here we report …
The pathogenesis and progression of endometriosis may involve a complex combination of multiple factors, including chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. Hormonal therapy, the current standard for pharmacotherapy in endometriosis, causes …
We investigated whether ovarian endometriomas uniformly express functional FSH receptors (FSHR) and respond to FSH by activating transcriptional programs that drive aromatase and steroid hormone production. Endometrioma cyst capsules were …
Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects ∼10% of women during reproductive age. It is characterised by ectopic (ECT) growth of endometrial-like tissue mainly in the pelvic cavity. …
Does peritoneal iron overload drive fibrosis in endometriosis through Nrf2 pathway dysfunction and the resulting ferroptosis, and can electroacupuncture intervene in this process?
Fibrosis, angiogenesis and chronic inflammation are the intrinsic characteristics of endometriosis. It is accompanied by significant changes in the cell composition of both ectopic and eutopic endometrial tissues, occurring both …
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and systemic symptoms, with currently limited treatment options. Amygdalin, a cyanogenic glycoside derived from bitter apricot kernels, has …
Estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and progesterone receptor (PGR) are essential regulators for endometrial receptivity and embryo implantation. Their expression is dysregulated in women with endometriosis-associated infertility. However, the relationship between …
Natural polyphenolics, more specifically flavonoids and derivatives, constitute chemically versatile scaffolds with a broad biological potential. In this study, different flavonoid derivatives (1-37) were assessed for cytotoxicity in Ishikawa and …
