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 (EMS) belongs to a gynecological disorder with inflammation and the existence of endometrial-like tissues beyond the uterus, often leading to infertility and pelvic pain. Estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is …
To evaluate the effects of a P2X4 receptor (P2X4R)-specific antagonist on murine endometriotic-like lesions and human endometriotic stromal cells.
The objective of this study was to examine the effect of administering an ethanol extract obtained from basil leaves on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the …
Understanding of molecular mechanisms contributing to the pathophysiology of endometriosis, and upstream drivers of lesion formation, remains limited. Using a C57Bl/6 mouse model in which decidualized endometrial tissue is injected …
Does metformin reverse endometriosis-associated infertility?
Aberrantly expressed circRNAs affect various anti-tumour immune responses and immune cell regulation. However, the exact function of circGLIS2 on the pathogenesis of EMs remains unclear. In this study, we found …
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 …
Endometriosis negatively impacts the health-related quality of life of 190 million women worldwide. Novel advances in nonhormonal treatments for this debilitating condition are desperately needed. Macrophages play a vital role …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent disease characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside their normal anatomical location. While laparoscopic removal of foci remains the gold standard therapy, …
