Ovulation is known to damage fallopian tube epithelial (FTE) cells, promote cellular transformation, and contribute to the development of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC). While ovulatory follicular fluid-derived extracellular ves…
Background/Objectives: The detection of ovarian cancer remains challenging due to the lack of reliable serum biomarkers that reflect malignant transformation rather than mere tumor presence. We developed a novel biotest using an immortalize…
Ovulation is a complex biological process essential for female fertility, driven by the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge and involving a cascade of molecular events that lead to follicular rupture and oocyte release. This process shares chara…
INTRODUCTION: High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC), the most lethal subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), often originates from serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) and is typically diagnosed at advanced stages. However, t…
OBJECTIVES: Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue. Despite its significant impact on fertility and quality of life, the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains p…
BACKGROUND: Incessant ovulation is the main etiologic factor of ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC), which mostly originate from the fallopian tube epithelium (FTE). Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands essential for follicle deve…
