Exposure to Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) phthalate drives ovarian dysfunction by inducing granulosa cell pyroptosis via the SLC39A5/NF-κB/NLRP3 axis.

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been reported to affect populations by disrupting the human endocrine system. Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is an EDC that is present in various consumer products. Exposure to DEHP could contribute to reproductive system dysfunction, with subsequent adverse female reproductive outcomes.

Melatonin improves pregnancy outcomes in adenomyosis mice by restoring endometrial receptivity via NF-κB/apoptosis signaling.

Background: Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disease which seriously impacts female fertility and is increasing in incidence in women of childbearing age. Melatonin has beneficial effects on reproductive processes. However, its impact on the uterine receptivity of patients with adenomyosis remains unclear.
