Adult endometrial glands undergo cyclic regeneration and development during the menstrual cycle. Their secretions are vital for endometrial functions and early pregnancy, yet the mechanisms controlling gland development are not well underst…

Microorganisms play an important role in regulating various biological processes in our bodies. In women, abnormal changes in the reproductive tract microbiome are associated with various gynecological diseases and infertility. Recent studi…

BACKGROUND: In the human endometrium, studies show the importance of extracellular vesicles in mediating various physiological as well as pathological processes. We have demonstrated that the myometrial cells are candidate niche cells of th…

BACKGROUND: The human endometrium is a regenerative tissue relying on stem/progenitor cells. Endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (eMSCs) are typically enriched using perivascular markers like CD140b and CD146. However, the identity of more p…

BACKGROUND: The monthly regeneration of human endometrial tissue is maintained by the presence of human endometrial mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (eMSC), a cell population co-expressing the perivascular markers CD140b and CD146. Endometria…

BACKGROUND: At menstruation, the functional layer of the human endometrium sheds off due to the trigger of the release of inflammatory factors, including interleukin 6 (IL-6), as a result of a sharp decline in progesterone levels, leading t…

Severe endometrium damage causes pathological conditions such as thin endometrium and intrauterine adhesion, resulting in uterine factor infertility. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy is a promising strategy in endometrial repair; yet, ex…

OBJECTIVE: Vitamin D receptors are present in the female reproductive tract. Studies on the association between serum vitamin D level and pregnancy rate of in vitro fertilization (IVF) showed inconsistent results and focused on a single fre…

During implantation, a symphony of interaction between the trophoblast originated from the trophectoderm of the implanting blastocyst and the endometrium leads to a successful pregnancy. Defective interaction between the trophoblast and end…

BACKGROUND: The identification of endometrial stem/progenitor cells in a high turnover rate tissue suggests that a well-orchestrated underlying network controls the behaviour of these stem cells. The thickness of the endometrium can grow fr…
