Through a combination of single-cell/single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (sc/snRNA-seq) data analysis, immunohistochemistry, and primary macrophage studies, we have identified pathogenic macrophages characterized by TET3 overexpression (Toe-Macs) in three major human diseases associated …
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) encompasses a broad range of infection-induced inflammatory disorders of the female upper genital tract, commonly caused by ascending sexually transmitted infections. Diagnosis is often challenging because …
Endometriosis affects approximately 10 % of women and is associated with chronic pelvic pain, fatigue, infertility, and impaired quality of life. This study explores the association between psychosomatic diseases/ symptoms …
Endometriosis, a chronic estrogen-dependent disorder defined by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth, causes pelvic pain and infertility in reproductive-age women. Despite its prevalence, the underlying mechanisms driving lesion persistence and reproductive …
Endometriosis (ENDO), a chronic inflammatory disease affecting approximately 190 million women globally, is characterized by fibrosis, a feature often challenging to replicate in murine models. To identify an optimal syngeneic …
Phthalate metabolites Mono- (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate(MEHP) and Phthalic Acid Monobenzyl Ester (MBZP) are widely present in the environment, can interfere with the endocrine system and accumulate in human tissues, and are …
Endometriosis is a widespread estrogen-driven condition causing pelvic pain and infertility in women. This disease shares five features with cancer: Intrinsic growth signals, insensitivity to antiproliferative signals, impaired apoptosis, induction …
Data from the Danish National Patient Register (DNPR) is widely used in research. Although overall data quality is high, studies reveal large fluctuations in code accuracy, emphasizing the importance of …
Endometriosis affects an estimated 200 million women globally, yet significant barriers hinder access to timely and appropriate care. These barriers encompass various aspects, including societal normalization of menstrual pain, leading …
A systematic review was conducted pertaining to the biologic processes of cumulus cells and measures of oocyte quality. The initial search yielded 18,549 articles, and after screening, 65 studies were …
