Suppression of endometriosis by miRNA-34a via inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-2: An alternative pathway to impede invasion

Non-coding RNA research ·doi:10.1016/j.ncrna.2025.02.001

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) cleave proteins of extracellular matrix thus facilitating cellular invasion and cancer progression. High MMP-2 activity is frequently reported in several diseases including endometriosis and cancer. Endometr…

Ultrasonographic Assessment of Uterine and Ovarian Structural Changes during the Menstrual Cycle in Relation to Hormonal Variations

Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences ·doi:10.4103/jpbs.jpbs_191_25

BACKGROUND: The menstrual cycle involves complex hormonal interactions that induce structural and functional changes in the uterus and ovaries. Ultrasonographic imaging offers a noninvasive means to assess these variations. This study evalu…

Interleukin-1β activated c-FOS transcription factor binds preferentially to a specific allele of the matrix metalloproteinase-13 promoter and increases susceptibility to endometriosis

Journal of cellular physiology ·doi:10.1002/jcp.30773

Endometriosis is a benign gynecological condition characterized by increased growth, inflammation, invasion, and angiogenesis, partly regulated by a class of enzymes called matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). The importance of a few MMPs, e.g…

Genetic studies of gestational duration and preterm birth

Best practice & research. Clinical obstetrics & gynaecology ·doi:10.1016/j.bpobgyn.2018.05.003

The fine control of birth timing is important to human survival and evolution. A key challenge in studying the mechanisms underlying the regulation of human birth timing is that human parturition is a unique to human event - animal models p…
