Background: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting 10-15% of women of reproductive age. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have accounted for only a fraction of its high heritability, indicating the …
Pingchong Jiangni recipe (PJR) is a Chinese herbal formula that has been used clinically for decades in the treatment of endometriosis, with effects such as shrinking the lesions and reducing …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue. Despite its significant impact on fertility and quality of life, the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains poorly …
Endometriosis markedly compromises female fertility, and although endometrial dysfunction likely plays a role in this pathology, its precise mechanistic contributions remain poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the decidualization …
Endometriosis is highly underdiagnosed and undertreated gynecological disorder, with diagnosis often delayed by 8-12 years. This delay can have serious consequences including infertility. Currently, the gold standard for endometriosis diagnosis …
Autophagy is a highly conserved eukaryotic process that degrades cytoplasmic material within lysosomes, and plays a crucial role in cellular development, function and homeostasis. Recent studies have increasingly revealed the …

This study investigated the role of ACSL4 in endometrial receptivity disorders in endometriosis (EMs) and evaluated PRGL493, an ACSL4 inhibitor, as a potential therapeutic target. Bioinformatic analysis identified ACSL4 as …
Organ functions generally decline with age, but the ovary is a prototypical organ that undergoes functional loss over time. Autophagy plays a crucial role in maintaining organ homeostasis, and age-related …
Endometriosis is a multifactorial disease that affects mainly women of reproductive age. It is unclear whether each form of pelvic endometriosis is an independent entity and whether a spatial relationship …
