Pharmacogenetics is an emerging discipline that explores how genetic variants affect drug response, potentially leading to side effects or treatment failure. Although widely applied in other medical specialties, its use …
Background: Adenomyosis and endometriosis are complex, estrogen-dependent gynecological conditions increasingly diagnosed in adolescents. While traditionally considered diseases of reproductive-age women, emerging evidence suggests a possible developmental origin in some cases, …
Background: Adenomyosis is a benign uterine disorder defined by the invagination of ectopic endometrial-like tissue into the myometrium, causing heavy menstrual bleeding and pain. While its pathogenesis remains unclear, shared-symptomology …
Ovarian cancer (OC) is highly lethal, largely due to late diagnosis and chemoresistance. Endometriosis (EM) increases the risk of specific OC subtypes, but the molecular connection between the two diseases …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue, with emerging evidence highlighting a significant genetic contribution to its etiology. While genome-wide association studies have …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial-like tissue. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified susceptibility variants, their tissue-specific regulatory impact remains poorly …
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 …
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) in women with no obvious pelvic pathology has few evidence-based treatment options. Our recent multicenter randomized controlled trial (GaPP2) in women with CPP and no obvious …
Risk factors for ovarian cancer include a number of genetic variants as well as endometriosis. The FAS-FASL system is one of the apoptotic pathways that play an essential role in …
