Objective: To investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms and its haplotypes of gene encoding CYP1B1 are associated with the risk of advanced endometriosis in Korean women.
Methods: We investigated 221 patients with histopathologically confirmed endometriosis rAFS stage III/IV and 188 control group women who were surgically proven to have no endometriosis. The genetic distribution of four different CYP1B1 polymorphisms at Ala119Ser, Leu432Val, Asp(449)(C>T), Asn453Ser were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism of PCR products. Haplotype analysis was also performed.
Results: We found no overall association between each individual CYP1B1 genotype or haplotype and the risk of endometriosis. Also, the odds ratio of each haplotypes of CYP1B1 showed no association with the risk of endometriosis.
Conclusions: These results suggest that CYP1B1 genetic polymorphism may not be associated with development of advanced endometriosis in Korean women.

This study aimed to assess the causal relationship between lipidome and female reproductive diseases (FRDs) using an advanced series of Mendelian randomization (MR) methods. This study utilized genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics encompassing 179 lipidomes and six prevalent FRDs, namely polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, uterine fibroid, female infertility, uterine endometrial cancer, and ovarian cancer. The two-sample MR (TSMR) approach was employed to investigate the causal relationships, with further validation using false discovery rate (FDR) and multivariable MR (MVMR) methods.

We can now accurately describe and evaluate lesions in multiple compartments of the pelvis, increasing diagnostic capacity without the need for initial laparoscopy. Recent consensus and publications support the new and growing evidence for this technique.

Objective: The present study was designed to comprehensively analyze the expression profiles of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), estrogen-related receptor-α (ERRα), estrogen receptor-β (ERβ), interleukin-6 (IL-6), cysteinyl-aspartic acid-specific protease-3 (caspase-3), and cysteinyl-aspartic acid-specific protease-9 (caspase-9) in endometriosis tissues. It also aimed to elucidate the hitherto unclarified role of PGC-1α in the processes of proliferation, apoptosis, and gene expression regulation of human endometrial stromal cells, thereby providing novel insights and identifying potential molecular targets for advancing endometriosis treatment modalities.
Methods: A total of 49 ectopic endometrial tissue samples and 50 normal endometrial tissue samples were meticulously collected from patients who underwent gynecological surgeries in the People's Hospital Affiliated to Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Fuzhou, China, between January 2022 and January 2023.
