BACKGROUND: Immune tolerance breakdown at the maternal-fetal interface is implicated in unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (URPL), but the interplay between T cell hyperactivation and dendritic cells (DCs)-mediated signaling remains poorl…

OBJECTIVE: IVF/ICSI is associated with an increased risk of placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS). Invasive PAS can result in significant adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. This study investigates the impact of IVF/ICSI on the severit…

Oncolytic viruses (OVs) offer a promising antitumor strategy by selectively lysing tumor cells and simultaneously activating innate and adaptive immune responses. Recent studies have shed light on the immunostimulatory mechanisms of OVs, pa…

The endometrium is a highly dynamic tissue central to female reproductive function, undergoing nearly 500 cycles of proliferation, differentiation, shedding, and regeneration throughout a woman's reproductive life. This remarkable regenerat…

OBJECTIVE: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic respiratory disease with high prevalence, morbidity, and mortality. Chuankezhi (CKZ) injection, a Chinese patent medicine, has been commonly used for treating COPD. This s…

Abnormal trophoblast self-renewal and differentiation during early gestation is the major cause of miscarriage, yet the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we show that trophoblast specific deletion of Kat8, a MYST family…

Cellular metabolism is an intricate network satisfying bioenergetic and biosynthesis requirements of cells. Relevant studies have been constantly making inroads in our understanding of pathophysiology, and inspiring development of therapeut…

Embryo implantation and placentation play pivotal roles in pregnancy by facilitating crucial maternal-fetal interactions. These dynamic processes involve significant alterations in gene expression profiles within the endometrium and trophob…

OBJECTIVE: The accurate preoperative differentiation of benign and malignant adnexal masses, especially those with complex ultrasound morphology, remains a great challenge for junior sonographers. The purpose of this study was to develop an…

Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is one of the most common malignancies of the female genital tract. A recently discovered protein-coding gene, PPP1R14B, can inhibit protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) as well as different PP1 holoenzyme…

Luteal phase deficiency (LPD) is a significant contributor to infertility and miscarriage. Bushen Zhuyun Prescription (BSZY) is a traditional Chinese medicine formula that has potential to treat LPD. To investigate the effect of BSZY in tre…

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. Adolescent endometriosis is often confined to the pelvic cavity and is a common cause of secondary dysmenorrhea in adolescents. Adolescent endomet…

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate whether endometriosis could disturb the mental health and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients and to provide a new prospective for further treatment of endometriosis. Methods: A comp…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease defined as the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus that causes pelvic pain and infertility. We used the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) 2017 to comprehensively analyze the b…

To systemically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Kuntai Capsules combined with GnRH-a in the treatment of endome-triosis. The databases of CNKI, WanFang, VIP, PubMed, EMbase and Cochrane Library were searched from their establishment to …

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common and deadly malignant tumors in the world, especially in China. Follistatin-like protein 5 (FSTL5) is a member of the FSTL family, which is involved in cell proliferation, migration, d…

Estrogen and progesterone coupled with locally produced signaling molecules are essential for embryo implantation. However, the hierarchical landscape of the molecular pathways that governs this process remains largely unexplored. Here we s…

Human endometrium decidualization, which involves endometrial stromal proliferation and differentiation, is a prerequisite for embryo implantation, thus successful pregnancy. The Forkhead Box M1 (FoxM1), previously known as HNF-3, HFH-11, M…

Embryo implantation involves the intimate interaction between an implantation-competent blastocyst and a receptive uterus, which occurs in a limited time period known as the window of implantation. Emerging evidence shows that defects origi…
