The ascent of novel alternative methods in drug development spotlights the dual needs for improved biological fidelity to in vivo, along with reproducibility, especially in regulatory applications. The need for …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting ~10% of reproductive-age women, with increasing evidence implicating the microbiome in its pathogenesis through immunomodulation and estrogen metabolism. This study investigated microbiome …
Three-dimensional (3D) organoid and co-culture models have emerged as transformative tools for studying human endometrial function, implantation, and placental development, overcoming key limitations of animal and two-dimensional in vitro systems. …
Three-dimensional (3D) culture systems provide physiologically relevant models that better replicate in vivo cell architecture and function compared to the conventional two-dimensional cultures. In reproductive biology, 3D models of endometrial …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disorder. Cholesterol (CHO) has been reported to be closely associated with estrogen synthesis and inflammatory responses. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying the effects of cholesterol …
Peritoneal endometriosis causes pelvic pain and infertility, but the underlying mechanisms related to these symptoms are not fully understood. Endometriosis diagnosis is typically delayed; thus, patient samples are unsuitable to …
Endometrial immune disorders create an inhospitable endometrial environment for embryonic nidation in endometriosis. CD8 + tissue resident memory T cells (CD8 +TRM) are abundant tissue resident immune cells in endometrium, …
The ascent of novel alternative methods (NAMs) in drug development spotlights the dual needs for improved biological fidelity to in vivo along with reproducibility, especially in regulatory applications. The need …
Endometriosis is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue growing outside of the uterus. One of its main symptoms is chronic pain and inflammation leading …
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder, whose pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Macrophages, a key type of immune cell, are pivotal in the context of endometriosis. This study seeks to explore …
