Environmental exposures are increasingly linked to reproductive dysfunctions such as endometriosis, ovarian insufficiency, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Through endocrine disruption, oxidative stress, and epigenetic pathways, heavy metals (such as …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory condition that affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women and is frequently associated with infertility and pelvic pain. Unlike many estrogen-dependent disorders, epidemiologic studies have …
The reproductive tract microbiome plays a pivotal role in female fertility, with Lactobacillus-dominated communities maintaining a protective, low-pH environment. Dysbiosis-characterized by a reduction in Lactobacillus species and overgrowth of anaerobes-is …
Ovarian fibrosis is increasingly recognized as a pivotal factor contributing to ovarian aging, dysfunction and female infertility. It results from chronic or repetitive ovarian injury, such as that caused by …
Oxidative stress plays a central role in reproductive disorders, with food bioactive compounds offering therapeutic potential through their antioxidant properties. This review examines antioxidant active ingredients from plant-based foods and …
Endocrine disruptors (EDs) are a heterogeneous group of natural or synthetic chemicals capable of interfering with hormonal regulation. Widely present in plastics, cosmetics, pesticides, food packaging, and household products, they …
Female infertility and reproductive disorders represent a significant global health challenge, with complex etiologies often linked to impaired cellular communication, inflammation, and tissue dysfunction. Exosomes (EXOs), nanosized extracellular vesicles laden …
Reproductive disorders affect millions of women worldwide, playing a crucial role in determining female fertility health and quality of life. Conventional methods such as surgery, hormone therapy, and assisted reproductive …
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 …
RNA modifications, collectively known as the epitranscriptome, represent the third layer of gene regulation, influencing gene expression at transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and translational levels. RNA-modifying proteins (RMPs), including writers, erasers, and …
