Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a disease featured by early menopause before 40 years of age, accompanied by an elevation of follicle-stimulating hormone. Though POI affects many aspects of women's health, its major causes remain unknown. Many clinical studies have shown that POI patient...

The effects of exogenous hormones used for estrus synchronization, and ovarian hyper stimulation on cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) gene expression in sexually mature rats were determined using microarrays. Gene expression in COCs collected from GnRH (Gtrt), GnRH+eCG (G+Etrt), and GnRH+eCG+hCG (G+E+...
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small regulatory RNAs that are implicated in cancer pathogenesis and have recently shown promise as blood-based biomarkers for cancer detection. Epithelial ovarian cancer is a deadly disease for which improved outcomes could be achieved by successful early detectio...
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal malignancy in the United States. In the year 2012, there will be an estimated 22,280 new cases and 15,500 deaths from ovarian cancer in the country (Siegel et al., 2012). While studies on ovarian cancer pathogenesis were mainly focused on the epithelial component of...
Comparison of various ovarian tumors and ovarian cell lines. Keywords: Various ovarian tumors and cell lines. Samples from ovarian tumors and ovarian cell lines were examined for their microRNA expression patterns.
Comparison of 9 paired human granulosa cell samples just before and 36h after hCG triggering for controlled ovarian stimulation, to explore genes regulated by hCG and involved with ovulation and final oocyte maturation.
Ascites-associated macrophages were collected from human ovarian carcinoma patients and their expression profiles determined via Agilent microarrays. In addition, monocyte derived macrophages from healthy donors were differentiated ex-vivo with MCSF and GMCSF and their expression profiles determined...
The goal of the study was to identify molecular subgroups that might predict clinical outcomes in serous epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. A second objective was to identify potential therapeutic targets for serous EOC based on improved understanding of the molecular diversity of the diseas...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic disorder that is characterized by increased circulating androgen levels, anovulatory infertility, and frequently, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia.The abnormity of oocyte nuclear maturity is the main reason for anovulatory i...
