Background and Objectives: Endometriosis is associated with chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, oestrogen-dependent growth, oxidative stress, altered steroid hormone metabolism, compromised epithelial barrier integrity, and the production of bioactive microbial metabolites. …
Cervical agenesis is an extremely rare congenital anomaly of the female reproductive tract characterized by normal fallopian tubes, an absent cervix, a functioning uterine body, and, occasionally, partial or total …
The pathogenesis of endometriosis and adenomyosis remains incompletely understood, and a notable gap persists between the reported heritability and the disease variation explained by identified susceptibility loci. In this manuscript, …
Endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory condition affecting 10% of reproductive-aged individuals, remains underdiagnosed and poorly managed due to a limited understanding of its pathogenesis. Emerging evidence highlights the gut and reproductive …
The female reproductive tract (FRT), particularly the vagina, has traditionally been regarded as a sterile environment. However, it is now recognized that the vagina is a complex, dynamic ecosystem dominated …
Female fertility relies heavily on the health of the oviduct and uterus. Each of these organs consist of a muscular tube lined by epithelial cells. In this review, we discuss …
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a complex multifactorial infectious disorder of the female reproductive tract, associated with severe long-term sequelae including infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and chronic pelvic pain, as well …
Growing evidence highlights the role of microbiota, including those of the gut, reproductive tract, and endometrial tissue, as critical functional drivers in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM). Studies have revealed …
Endometriosis has been associated with alterations in the reproductive tract microbiota, yet studies focusing on the endometrial microbiome remain inconsistent, partly due to the low-biomass nature of this niche and …
How can the potential mechanisms and targets of endometriosis be explored through multi-omics and multi-location approaches?
