A new humoral factor has been detected, within a project aiming to disclose the body's reproductive hormonal brake against tissue overgrowth, micrin ('my-crin'). Factor purification involved fractionation of ovine and …
Background: The individual and social burden of endometriosis is high, and the diagnosis is usually delayed by 7-10 years. Menstrual effluent (ME) represents an accessible and uniquely informative biofluid. This …
Identification of appropriate biomarkers is of great clinical significance for early diagnosis of endometriosis (EMs). This study aimed to comprehensively analyze the association between EMs and blood and urine biomarkers …
Objectives: The peritoneal cavity is a cavity outside the bloodstream, with a specific hormonal, immunological and microbiological micro-environment distinct from plasma. The mesothelial cells lining the peritoneal cavity react within …
Soluble immune mediators are key regulators of immune responses that help maintain self-tolerance and prevent autoimmunity. Recently, many forms of these mediators have been found, including soluble immune checkpoints, soluble …
Sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis is a rare complication of endometriosis that has sparsely been described in the literature. It involves the development of a thick gray-white fibrotic membrane, which partially or …
Despite ongoing challenges in developing effective non-surgical and non-hormonal treatments for endometriosis, the psychological manifestations of the disease-particularly anxiety-remain comparatively underexplored. In this study, a hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-releasing aspirin derivative, …
NK-cell dysfunction in endometriosis is suggested to contribute to the survival of ectopic endometrial tissue. However, the underlying causes of this impairment remain unclear. NK cells are divided into: CD56+bright, …
