Neutrophil extracellular traps in gynecological disease: pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities.

Gynecologic disorders, including infections, sterile inflammatory diseases, endocrine abnormalities, and malignancies, share a common signature of dysregulated immunity within a uniquely hormone-responsive reproductive tract. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are increasingly …

Serum metabolic fingerprinting for diagnosis and therapeutic applications of ovarian endometriosis.

Ovarian endometriosis (OvE) is a gynecological disorder with endometrial tissue in the ovaries, for which effective non-invasive diagnosis and curative treatments are currently lacking. Serum samples were collected from both …

Identification of a circulating immunological signature as a liquid biopsy approach for the diagnosis of endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by ectopic endometrial tissue growth, causing pain and infertility. Diagnosis is often delayed due to reliance on imaging and invasive methods, highlighting the …

Gut microbiota composition and systemic immune-inflammatory marker correlations in infertile women with endometriosis: a pilot case-control study.

The specific gut microbial signatures and their correlation with immune-inflammatory markers in infertile women with endometriosis remain underexplored.To investigate the differences in gut microbiota and their associations with biochemical immune …

Endometriosis as a Systemic and Complex Disease: Toward Phenotype-Based Classification and Personalized Therapy.

Endometriosis is traditionally conceptualized as a pelvic lesion-centered disease; however, mounting evidence indicates it is a chronic, systemic, and multifactorial inflammatory disorder. This review examines the molecular dialog between ectopic …

Neurobiological Signatures of Endometriosis: Characterizing Pain, Cognition, and Brain Morphology.

Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women worldwide and is associated with substantial pain and mental health burden, yet its neurobiological correlates remain poorly characterized. Neuroimaging studies of endometriosis are …

FTIR Spectroscopy Combined with Machine Learning Reveals Molecular Signatures Distinguishing three Phenotypes of Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder in which endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, leading to pelvic pain and infertility. It remains a major challenge in women's health due to …

Applications of Exosomes in Female Medicine: A Systematic Review of Molecular Biology, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Perspectives.

Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles that mediate intercellular communication by transporting microRNAs, proteins, and lipids. Generated through Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport (ESCRT)-dependent mechanisms or ESCRT-independent pathways, exosomes are …

Prognostic modeling of endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer based on molecular signatures: a retrospective study.

Deconvolution of DNA Methylation Data Reveals Cell-Type-Specific Epigenomic Signatures in Endometriosis and Eutopic Endometrium.

Endometriosis (EM) is a debilitating disease involving the growth of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. To further our understanding of epigenomic dysregulation in EM and search for disease …
