Estrogen receptor α (ESR1) is a pivotal regulator of endometrial homeostasis and reproductive function, yet the coregulators that fine tune its transcriptional activity remain incompletely defined. In this issue of …
Pregnancy requires a supportive uterine environment facilitated by steroid hormone-regulated differentiation of endometrial stromal fibroblasts into decidual cells and tight control of inflammation. Serum response factor (SRF) is a widely …
Steroid receptor coactivators (SRCs) are master regulators of nuclear receptor signaling and play essential roles in female reproductive physiology. By integrating steroid hormone signaling with growth factors and metabolic pathways, …
As a highly dynamic tissue, the endometrium undergoes complex remodeling during the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Recent studies have revealed that cellular senescence plays a pivotal role in both physiological …
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, …
Endometriosis-related infertility is a prevalent reproductive health concern of global significance. Functional abnormalities of the endometrium are increasingly recognized as a pivotal contributor to infertility in affected individuals. In the …
Regulated cell death (RCD) is a fundamental biological process essential for tissue homeostasis and disease regulation. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that RCD plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of …
Endometriosis is a chronic disease characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial cells that evade apoptosis and survive and proliferate under harsh environmental conditions. It is closely associated with infertility …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Although commonly associated with pelvic pain and infertility, its incidental discovery during a …
Ovarian steroid hormones-estrogen and progesterone-play a central role in regulating epithelial-stromal interactions in the uterus. These interactions are critical for uterine function, including endometrial receptivity, implantation, and decidualization. These interactions …
