The follicular fluid (FF) microenvironment plays a critical role in oocyte maturation and embryo development, reflecting local ovarian activity and systemic metabolic status. While metabolic alterations in FF have been …
To compare follicular fluid (FF) cytokine and homocysteine profiles in women with poor ovarian response (POR) undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF), with and without sonographic endometrioma, and to explore potential …
This preliminary study sought to provide initial insights into lead concentrations within the follicular fluid of infertile patients with and without endometriosis, tentatively observing any potential links between lead presence …
Endometriosis (EMs)-associated infertility has been linked to alterations in the follicular microenvironment; however, the role of exosomal long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in granulosa cell dysfunction remains incompletely understood.
Background: Endometriosis is a major cause of female infertility. It significantly impacts oocyte quality and embryonic development. The condition's pathophysiological mechanisms are multifactorial. However, they are believed to be reflected …
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: Endometriosis is associated with infertility and impaired assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes, potentially due to an altered follicular microenvironment characterized by chronic inflammation. This study investigates the systemic and …
This study investigates metabolic profiles in follicular fluid of patients with endometriosis (EM), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), tubal blockage (TB), and unexplained infertility (UEI), assessing their associations with follicular development …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder associated with infertility. EMs patients often require assisted reproductive technology (ART) but exhibit lower success rates. This study aimed to characterize the follicular …
Endometriosis is a common gynaecological condition characterised by the growth of endometrial-like tissue both within the muscular layer of the uterus and outside of it, affecting 10-15 % of women …
