Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide and is a leading cause of chronic pelvic pain. Despite its high prevalence and substantial socioeconomic burden, the mechanisms underlying endometriosis-associated pain …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent disorder defined by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth, persistent inflammation, and aberrant innervation. Emerging evidence indicates that disease progression and symptom severity are driven by a …
The comorbidity between endometriosis and migraine has long been recognized clinically, yet a unifying pathophysiological explanation has remained elusive. Traditional models, centered on hormonal fluctuations or secondary inflammation are lacking …
Uterine pain associated with labor, dysmenorrhea, or endometriosis is often driven by inflammation, which enhances nociceptive signaling and contributes to hyperalgesia. Although nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and glucocorticoids are commonly …
The clinical management of endometriosis encounters a significant obstacle: existing therapies inadequately address both the inhibition of ectopic lesion proliferation and the mitigation of the neuroinflammation associated with chronic pain. …
This study investigated how chronic pelvic pain (CPP) develops using rhesus macaques with naturally occurring endometriosis and a multiple-lesion induction mouse model (MIM), as repeated retrograde menstruation is considered an …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory disease often treated with blood-activating and stasis-resolving therapies. Anxiety and depression are common mental comorbidities in patients with EMs. There are no medications available …
Chronic pain is a widespread condition affecting millions globally, placing significant strain on healthcare systems, as evidenced by the current opioid crisis. Despite advances in pain management, conventional treatments often …
Menstrual blood-derived endometrial stem cells ameliorate neuroinflammation and apoptosis through JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in NPC1 mutant cell and mice Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Chronic pain is a defining feature of endometriosis and contributes significantly to the diminished quality of life observed in affected individuals. Despite advances in understanding disease pathology, current therapeutic strategies …
