Endometriosis is characterized by the ectopic implantation of endometrial tissue affecting reproductive-aged women. Available therapies have still unmet needs namely due to recurrence rates and systemic side effects. Emerging evidence …
Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial-like tissue. This study aims to elucidate the effect of hormonal treatment in human endometriosis inflammation, angiogenesis and …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent condition characterized by ectopic implantation of endometrial tissue, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying lesion persistence remain incompletely understood. Aquaporins (AQPs), transmembrane water channels involved in cellular …
Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) is expressed on the plasma membrane of granulosa cells in the ovarian follicles. FSHR is involved in the development and maturation of Graafian follicles, along with …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disorder. Cholesterol (CHO) has been reported to be closely associated with estrogen synthesis and inflammatory responses. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying the effects of cholesterol …
Uterine leiomyomas or fibroids, are non-cancerous smooth muscle proliferations of the uterus, occurring mostly in women of reproductive age. Their pathogenesis involves complex growth factor interactions that regulate cellular proliferation, …
Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynecological disease, characterized by the growth of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus and by the presence of chronic inflammatory lesions. This condition is …
The extracellular matrix (ECM) critically influences cell behavior, yet its properties in human endometrial lesions (HEL) and human uterine fibromas (HUF) are not well characterized. This study aimed to characterize …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a non-cancerous invasive condition where tissue resembling the lining of the uterus is found outside of the uterine cavity. Endometriotic lesions have been found in nearly every …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and exhibits tumor-like characteristics such as invasion, recurrence, and hormone-dependent proliferation despite its benign nature. …
