Extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the mammalian oviduct constitute a key maternal regulatory system that maintains redox balance during early embryogenesis, yet their molecular cargo and functional relevance in human embryos remain poorly def…

AIM: To systematically assess the prevalence of sexual dysfunction among patients suffering from endometriosis. METHODS: A literature search was carried out using databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang from the incepti…

Endometriosis is a chronic disorder and the present study investigated the therapeutic potential of quercetin, derived from Paeoniae Radix Alba and Hedysarum multijugum Maxim (BSHQ), by identifying bioactive ingredients and key biomarkers w…

The age-related decline in oocyte quality constitutes a major cause of reduced female fertility. In this study, we investigated the potential of stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) to counteract oocyte deterioration during reproductive ag…

OBJECTIVES: This meta-analysis seeks to clarify the relationship between hysterectomy, oophorectomy, and the subsequent risk of developing breast cancer. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was conducted across PubMed, the Cochrane …

PURPOSE: To screen drug targets of ovarian aging from a genetic perspective. METHODS: Systematic analyses were conducted with cis-expression quantitative trait loci data of druggable genes extracted as instrument variables. Summary statist…

Adenomyosis is characterized by the infiltration of endometrial glands and stroma into the myometrium which affects about 35% women at reproductive age. Women affected by adenomyosis always experience issues such as defective decidualizatio…

BACKGROUND: This study explores the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of gastric cancer induced by plasticizers, with particular emphasis on the interactions between plasticizers and key genes and signaling pathways…

Chelidonium majus L. (C. majus), commonly known as "Bai Qu Cai" in China, belongs to the genus Chelidonium of the Papaveraceae family. It has rich medicinal value, such as alleviating coughs, asthma, spasms and pain. Recent studies have dem…

BACKGROUND: Primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) is often related to adverse neonatal outcomes. But it's currently controversial whether pSS has an adverse effect on female fertility and clinical pregnancy condition. More importantly, it's unclea…

BACKGROUND: With the increasing incidence of obesity and the childbearing-age delay among women, a debate over obesity's impacts on pregnancy and neonatal outcomes becomes hot. The potential negative effects of obesity and aging on fertilit…

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to investigate the microbial characteristics of yak uteri collected using intrauterine cotton swabs (CS) during different reproductive stages and the correlation of these microbial characteristics with reprodu…

Female fecundity declines in a nonlinear manner with age during the reproductive years, even as ovulatory cycles continue, which reduces female fertility, disrupts metabolic homeostasis, and eventually induces various chronic diseases. Desp…

INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have indicated the association between smooth endoplasmic reticulum aggregates (SERa+) and poorer medically assisted reproduction outcomes. However, the link between SERa+ and neonatal outcomes remains controv…

BACKGROUND: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is often associated with adverse reproductive outcomes. But it's currently unclear regarding the role of SLE in oocyte and embryonic development. Also, it's controversial whether SLE has an adv…

STUDY QUESTION: Do extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human Fallopian tubes exert an influence on early embryo development in vitro? SUMMARY ANSWER: Human Fallopian tube EVs carrying miRNAs increase murine embryo viability in vitro. WHAT I…

Understanding the microflora inhabiting the reproductive tract is important for a better understanding of female physiology and reproductive health. The endometrial fluid from mice in three reproductive stages (A: Unproductive mice; B: Post…

Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) have evolved from exogenous retroviruses and account for approximately 8% of the human genome. A growing number of findings suggest that the abnormal expression of HERV genes is associated with schizoph…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of oviductal extracellular vesicles from patients with endometriosis on early embryo development. DESIGN: In vitro experimental study. SETTING: University-affiliated hospital. PATIENTS: Women with …

To estimate the effects of early cervical lesions (ECL) on female reproductive function and IVF/ICSI cycle outcomes, a retrospective cohort study involving 111 infertile women from 2014 to 2019 was performed. Thirty-seven women with a histo…

Exosomes in the follicular fluid can carry and transfer regulatory molecules to recipient cells, thus influencing their biological functions. However, the specific effects of yak follicular fluid exosomes on 2-hydroxyestrodiol (2-OHE2) secr…

BACKGROUND: Luteinizing hormone (LH) is critical in follicle growth and oocyte maturation. However, the value of recombinant LH (r-LH) supplementation to recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (r-FSH) during controlled ovarian stimulation…

PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was whether endometriosis influences IVF/ICSI and subsequent pregnancy and obstetric outcomes. METHODS: Searches were performed on PubMed, EMBASE, Medline, and Web of Science. Most of the included studies …

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis affects the outcomes of spontaneous fertility and assisted reproductive technology. The single blastocyst embryo transfer (SBT) policy is an effective strategy known to minimize the risk of multiple pregnancy for non…

PURPOSE: Endometrial extracellular vesicles are essential in regulating trophoblasts' function. This study aims to investigate whether endometrial extracellular vesicles (EVs) from recurrent implantation failure (RIF) patients inhibit the p…
