De novo mutations (DNMs) are an important source of congenital diseases. With delayed parenthood and assisted reproductive technology (ART) use increasing, it is essential to elucidate how these reproductive factors influence DNMs and wheth…

Chronic inflammatory diseases, such as endometriosis (EMS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), share a common pathogenic hallmark driven by a hyperinflammatory microenvironment. Nonetheless, long-acting therapeutic platforms capable of concurren…

IntroductionAcute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory pancreatic disorder with potentially severe systemic consequences. While its immediate clinical impact is well established, the long-term multisystem comorbidities of AP remain underexp…

Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is a common organ failure in acute pancreatitis (AP) with high mortality. This study used machine learning to predict ARF risk in AP patients through a retrospective, multicenter cohort analysis involving MIM…

Ovarian senescence is accompanied by inflammatory responses, yet the underlying mechanism remains incompletely elucidated. In this study, transcriptome sequencing was performed on ovarian granulosa cells from advanced-age patients and norma…

Phthalates (PAEs), typical endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that accumulate in the human body to induce reproductive toxicity, have epidemiological links to endometriosis (EM), but the underlying micro-mechanisms remain unclear. Ferrop…

The present study investigated the role of melatonin (MT) in regulating mitochondrial function via sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) in granulosa cells (GCs) from patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), with a focus on mitochondrial protection. Not…

PURPOSE: Preclinical evidence suggests that metformin may mitigate pelvic organ prolapse (POP) by altering the gene expression of human vaginal fibroblasts in a beneficial direction, but clinical validation is lacking. This study aimed to e…

The hypothalamus plays a vital role in reproductive processes. Previous studies have identified hypothalamic miRNAs involved in mammalian reproduction, but the miRNA profiles induced by photoperiod changes remain unclear. In this study, we …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between third-trimester antenatal depression (AND) and the number of pregnancies, considering the possible moderating role of dysmenorrhea. METHODS: A total of 1,178 pregnant women in their third t…

Endometrial polyps (EPs) are common uterine lesions associated with abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility, yet their pathogenesis remains poorly defined. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of normal endometrium, para-polyp, a…

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a prevalent complication in individuals with diabetes. Efferocytosis plays a pivotal role in chronic diseases; however, the precise mechanisms involved in DKD are still not fully understood. DKD-related data…

BACKGROUND: Hydrosalpinx affects 10-30% of infertile women, creating a hostile tubal microenvironment that impairs embryonic development. Although fluid embryotoxicity is recognised, specific toxic metabolites and their molecular mechanisms…

INTRODUCTION: Early pregnancy bleeding is a common pregnancy complication, yet its genetic basis and potential links with psychiatric traits remain poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize the shared genetic architecture between …

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a leading cause of anovulatory infertility. Despite a high antral follicle count, advanced-age PCOS patients experience a marked decline in cumulative live birth rates (CLBR) after assisted re…

Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a calcium-dependent protein with high affinity for phospholipids, and its multifunctional nature has drawn increasing attention in the onset and progression of various disorders of the female reproductive system (FRS).…

BACKGROUND: Menopause is a major global health issue affecting cisgender women, transgender people, and gender-diverse populations, yet it remains under-recognised in research and policy, particularly in low-income and middle-income countri…

BACKGROUND: Uterine leiomyoma (fibroids) is the most common benign tumor in women and the leading indication for hysterectomy, yet medical therapy remains limited and largely hormonal. Whether circulating proteins causally influence fibroid…

Background: Polydatin has shown anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cytoprotective effects in preclinical studies. Its development is limited by low oral bioavailability, extensive metabolism, and poorly defined tissue exposure. Objectives:…

BACKGROUND: Higher prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) is a well-established risk factor for adverse neonatal outcomes in IVF-conceived pregnancies; therefore, weight management is important for infertile patients, yet it remains challenging…

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection-associated intestinal manifestations, including diarrhea and proctitis, have been frequently reported during mpox outbreaks. Here, we present clinical evidence that MPXV can directly infect the human intesti…

With the increasing rates of cesarean section (CS), cesarean section scar defect (CSD) has become an escalating clinical concern due to uterine dysfunction and reduced fertility. However, the biological basis of CSD remains poorly understoo…

IntroductionEndometriosis (EMs) is considered the precursor lesions of ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (OEC). This study aimed to identify differentially expressed proteins between OEC and EMs, and to explore the associated biological functi…
