Investigating Aging-Related Endometrial Dysfunction Using Endometrial Organoids.

Ageing of the endometrium is a critical factor that affects reproductive health, yet its intricate mechanisms remain poorly explored. In this study, we performed transcriptome profiling and experimental verification of endometrium and endometrial organoids from young and advanced age females, to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and to explore novel treatment strategies for endometrial ageing. First, we found that age-associated decline in endometrial functions including fibrosis and diminished receptivity, already exists in reproductive age.
