OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis-associated epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a specific category of EOC, containing either endometrioid or clear cell carcinoma subtype. The characteristic of endometriosis-associated EOC includes an early stage at…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease in reproductive-age women. Although the hormone-dependent therapy is the first line treatment for endometriosis, it is not a curative regimen and associated with severe side-effects, which sig…
Oxygen is essentially required by most eukaryotic organisms as a scavenger to remove harmful electron and hydrogen ions or as a critical substrate to ensure the proper execution of enzymatic reactions. All nucleated cells can sense oxygen c…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease, which is defined as the growth of endometrial tissues outside the uterine cavity. It often causes dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility in reproductive-age women. Ho…
Rationale: Endometriosis is a highly prevalent gynecological disease in women of reproductive age that markedly reduces life quality and fertility. Unfortunately, there is no cure for this disease, which highlights that more efforts are nee…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease, which is defined as the growth of endometrial tissues outside the uterine cavity. It often causes dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility in reproductive-age women. Ho…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease, which is defined as the growth of endometrial tissues outside the uterine cavity. It often causes dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility in reproductive-age women. Ho…
PROBLEM: How does hypoxia-mediated downregulation of dual-specificity phosphatase-2 (DUSP2) promote the development of endometriotic lesions? METHOD OF STUDY: The levels of IL-6 and DUSP2 were assessed in eutopic stromal cells with DUSP2 kn…
Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases that significantly reduce the life quality of affected women. Research results from the past decade clearly demonstrated that aberrant production of estrogen and cyclooxygenase-…
STUDY QUESTION: How does hypoxia-mediated down-regulation of dual specificity phosphatase-2 (DUSP2) promote endometriotic lesion development? SUMMARY ANSWER: Inhibition of DUSP2 by hypoxia enhances endometriotic lesion growth via promoting …
CONTEXT: Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases in women with a prevalence rate of approximately 10%. Chronic pelvic inflammation has been observed in patients with endometriosis and is associated with disease severi…
CONTEXT: Aberrant activation of MAPK has been implicated to play important roles in pathological processes of endometriosis. However, how MAPK are constitutively activated in endometriotic tissues remains largely unknown. microRNA are small…
Endometriosis is one of the most common gynaecological diseases that significantly reduces the life qualify of affected women and their families. Aberrant expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and thus over-production of prostaglandin E(2…
