Background: Endometriosis (EM) is a complex gynecological disease whose underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. The discovery of cancer driver mutations in endometriotic lesions indicates that EM may share common molecular…

Oxidative stress (OS) has been proposed to play a role in the development of endometriosis (EMs). Peroxiredoxins are a family of antioxidant proteins that exhibit peroxidase activity in a thioredoxin-dependent manner, protecting cells again…

Previous research has indicated that Polyphyllin I (PPI) possesses potent anticancer properties. However, its impact on endometriosis remains unexplored. This study aims to investigate the inhibitory effects of PPI on ectopic endometrial st…

BACKGROUND: The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is now widely used for the treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding and endometrial hyperplasia, and its clinical application has been extended to adenomyosis. By releasing…

Given the high concentration of iron in the micro-environment of ovarian endometriosis, it is plausible to hypothesize that ectopic endometrial cells may be more susceptible to undergoing ferroptosis. Manipulation of ferroptosis has been ex…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common and complex syndrome characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. Chinese medicine has been recently found to show good efficacy in treating endometriosis. Our previous r…

Endometriosis is a common female gynecological disease that is characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. At present, many animal models have been established. However, previous studies consis…

Objectives: Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease affecting up to ~10% of women at reproductive age. Prior combined studies implied that MARVELD2 might be involved in the pathogenesis of certain malignancies. Here, 211 Han Chinese…

Previous studies revealed that MQEO (Maqian fruits essential oil), which is extracted from the fruit of Maqian (Zanthoxylum myriacanthum var. Pubescens), had a good anti-inflammatory effect, but the effect on endometriosis in vitro remains …

BACKGROUND: Our previous two-dimensional electrophoresis experiment showed that the expression of LASP1 in patients with endometriosis was significantly higher than that of control endometrium. However, the molecular mechanism by which LASP…

Prior studies have shown that genetic factors play important roles in ovarian endometriosis. Herein, we first analyzed the whole-exome sequencing data from 158 patients with ovarian endometriosis and 385 local control women without endometr…

PURPOSE: Endometriosis is a common chronic gynecological disease greatly affecting women health. Prior studies have implicated that dysferlin (DYSF) aberration might be involved in the pathogenesis of ovarian endometriosis. In the present s…

PURPOSE: Adenomyosis is a diffuse or localized disease. Our previous study has indicated that tanshinone IIA (TSIIA) inhibits the proliferation, migration, and induces apoptosis of ectopic endometrial stromal cells (EESCs) of adenomyosis. H…

Abstract Our previous two-dimensional electrophoresis experiments showed that the expression of LASP1 in patients with endometriosis was significantly higher than that of control endometrium. However, the molecular mechanism by which LASP1 …

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease affecting up to 10% of women at reproductive age. Prior combined studies implied that MYH8 mutations might exist in endometriosis. Here, 152 Han Chinese samples with ovarian endometriosis were…

Oxidative stress (OS) has been proposed to play a role in the development of EMs. Peroxiredoxins are a family of antioxidant proteins that exhibit peroxidase activity in a thioredoxin-dependent manner, protecting cells against OS. The Weste…

EMT (Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition) is one of the factors in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. FMNL2 induced invasion of cancer cell through promoting EMT, but it is unclear the role of FMNL2 in the adenomyosis. By IHC staining, we found…

Endometriosis is a complex and heterogeneous pre-malignant inflammatory disease harboring multiple gene mutations. Previous studies have suggested that caspase recruitment domain family member (CARD)10 and CARD11 mutations may exist in endo…

Endometriosis is still a major problem in obstetrics and gynecology. While GZFLW (Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan) has been originally used for treating gynecological diseases, however, the molecular mechanism that GZFLW acts on endometriosis is not cl…

Endometriosis is characterized by the ectopic implant of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity and found in ˜35-50% of subfertile women. Previous studies have found that endometriosis had frequent defects in zona pellucida (ZP), and…

Endometriosis is a potential premalignant disorder. The underlying molecular aberrations, however, are not fully understood. A recent exome sequencing study found that 25% (10/39) of deep infiltrating endometriosis harbored cancer driver ge…

BACKGROUND: Given the important roles of the receptor-mediated lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) signaling in both reproductive tract function and gynecological cancers, it will be informative to investigate the potential role of LPA in the devel…

Objectives To study and improve the diaguosis and treatment of ureteral endometriosis.Methods The clinical data of 5 ureteric endometriosis were retrospectively analyzed.Their mean age was 38 years (range,30 ～ 45 years).Of the 5 cases,3 cas…
