UNLABELLED: Endometrioid and mucinous ovarian carcinomas represent nearly a fifth of ovarian cancers, but their molecular characteristics and pathologic origins are poorly understood. To identify the genomic and epigenomic alterations chara…

Kaplan-Meier survival curves for ovarian cancer patients with and without mutations in the PI3K and WNT pathways. (a, b) Alterations in the PI3K pathway trended towards increased survival among patients with ovarian endometrioid carcinomas …

The fallopian tubes play key roles in processes from pregnancy to ovarian cancer where three-dimensional (3D) cellular and extracellular interactions are important to their pathophysiology. Here, we develop a 3D multicompartment assembloid …

BACKGROUND: ARID1A, a tumor suppressor gene encoding BAF250, a protein participating in chromatin remodeling, is frequently mutated in endometrium-related malignancies, including ovarian or uterine clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and endometrioi…

Although endometriosis is primarily benign, it has been identified as a risk factor for endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC). Genetic alterations in ARID1A, PTEN, and PIK3CA have been reported in EAOC; however, an appropriate EAOC…

UNLABELLED: The fallopian tube has an essential role in several physiological and pathological processes from pregnancy to ovarian cancer. However, there are no biologically relevant models to study its pathophysiology. The state-of-the-art…

Endometrium-related malignancies including uterine endometrioid carcinoma, ovarian clear cell carcinoma and ovarian endometrioid carcinoma are major types of gynecologic cancer, claiming more than 13,000 women's lives annually in the United…

Adenomyosis and peritoneal endometriosis are common gynecologic lesions; they are characterized by aberrant locations of normal-appearing endometrium in myometrium and peritoneal surface, respectively. Both ectopic lesions are speculated to…

In response to cytosolic DNA, stimulator of interferon gene (STING) initiates and orchestrates host's innate immunity by inducing type I interferon. Since endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder, we sought to determine whether STIN…

The pathogenesis of endometriosis, a common benign but debilitating disease in women, remains elusive. The currently held stem cell theory posits that circulating progenitor/stem cells are deposited outside the uterus, where they differenti…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, defined as the presence of ectopic endometrial stroma and epithelium, affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women and can cause pelvic pain and infertility. Endometriotic lesions are considered to be benig…
