Do activated fibroblasts expressing fibroblast activation protein-α (FAP) - which is traceable in positron emission topography/computed topography (PET/CT) - play a role in the microenvironment of endometriosis?
The mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of endometriosis, characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus, remain poorly understood. This study aimed to identify cell type-specific gene expression changes …
Endometriosis development is associated with peritoneal immune microenvironment abnormality; however, the specific mechanism is uncertain. We aimed to investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of uterine cavity-derived exosomes on macrophage …
Endometriosis is an inflammatory disease, involving immune cell infiltration and production of inflammatory mediators. Ferroptosis has recently been recognized as a mode of controlled cell death and the iron overload …
Endometriosis, the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, causes chronic pain and infertility in 10 % of reproductive-aged women worldwide. Unfortunately, no permanent cure exists, and current medical and …
Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory disease that is one of the most common causes of gynecological systemic lesions in women before menopause. The most representative histological feature of EM …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory, estrogenic disorder caused by endometrial tissue growth places other than uterine lumen, resulting in infertility and severe pelvic pain. Thymol, an extract of Thymus vulgaris, …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the growth of endometrium-like tissues outside the uterine cavity, with an unclear pathogenesis. Analysis of single-cell sequencing data revealed the pivotal role …
Over 60% of women with endometriosis experience abdominopelvic pain and broader pain manifestations, including chronic back pain, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, vulvodynia, and migraine. Although the imbalance of proinflammatory mediators, including …
Endometriosis is a common gynecologic condition that causes chronic life-altering symptoms including pain, infertility, and elevated cancer risk. There is an urgent need for new non-hormonal targeted therapeutics to treat …
