Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent studies have suggested that endometriosis could be the result of excessive activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), which is associated with the regulation of essential cellular mechanisms such as proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis. That finding implies that regulating STAT3 activation could play a key role in treating endometriosis. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate whether the anti-endometriotic effects of dienogest is mediated by the regulation of STAT3 activation. STUDY DESIGN STAT3 activation was evaluated in normal endometrial and ovarian endometriotic tissues obtained from patients with/without preoperative dienogest treatment. A subsequent in vitro analysis with endometriotic cyst stromal cells (ECSCs) was used to confirm the direct influence of dienogest in STAT3 activation. RESULT STAT3 activation is significantly higher in endometriotic tissues from non-treated patients than in normal endometrial tissues, and that difference is reversed by preoperative administration of dienogest. Similarly, the inhibitory effects of dienogest on STAT3 activation are demonstrated by in vitro results showing that dienogest treatment significantly inhibits IL-6-stimulated STAT3 activation in cultured ECSCs. That inhibition was accompanied by decreased expression of proliferative (PCNA), invasive (MMP-2), and anti-apoptotic (BCL-2) proteins. Furthermore, downregulating STAT3 activity with siRNA decreased PCNA, MMP-2, and BCL-2 expression in IL-6-treated ECSCs. CONCLUSION Dienogest inhibits STAT3 activation in ECSCs, which affects their proliferation, invasiveness, and apoptosis.

Abstract
Drug designing is high-priced and time taking process with low success rate. To overcome this obligation, computational drug repositioning technique is being promptly used to predict the possible therapeutic effects of FDA approved drugs against multiple diseases. In this computational study, protein modeling, shape-based screening, molecular docking, pharmacogenomics, and molecular dynamic simulation approaches have been utilized to retrieve the FDA approved drugs against AD. The predicted MADD protein structure was designed by homology modeling and characterized through different computational resources. Donepezil and galantamine were implanted as standard drugs and drugs were screened out based on structural similarities. Furthermore, these drugs were evaluated and based on binding energy (Kcal/mol) profiles against MADD through PyRx tool. Moreover, pharmacogenomics analysis showed good possible associations with AD mediated genes and confirmed through detail literature survey. The best 6 drug (darifenacin, astemizole, tubocurarine, elacridar, sertindole and tariquidar) further docked and analyzed their interaction behavior through hydrogen binding. Finally, MD simulation study were carried out on these drugs and evaluated their stability behavior by generating root mean square deviation and fluctuations (RMSD/F), radius of gyration (Rg) and soluble accessible surface area (SASA) graphs. Taken together, darifenacin, astemizole, tubocurarine, elacridar, sertindole and tariquidar displayed good lead like profile as compared with standard and can be used as possible therapeutic agent in the treatment of AD after in-vitro and in-vivo assessment.

Abstract
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecologic disorder characterized by abnormal growth of endometrium-like tissues in the ectopic regions of the pelvic peritoneum. The pathophysiology of endometriosis is not completely understood; however, excessive endometrial cell proliferation together with resistance to apoptosis facilitates the migration, implantation, and survival of endometrial cells in the distant sites. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response (also called unfolded protein response) is a cellular defense mechanism triggered by ER stress. When severe enough, the so-called response initiates cell suicide, i.e., apoptosis. Therefore, therapeutic induction of ER stress in endometriotic cells could promote apoptosis and contribute to the management of disease. In this review, we discuss the pathogenic role of ER stress in endometriosis and the most recent findings regarding the induction of ER stress in connection with endometriosis.

Abstract
Adenomyosis, endometriosis, endometritis, and typical endometrial hyperplasia are common non-cancerous diseases of the endometrium that afflict many women with life-impacting consequences. The mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) pathway interacts with estrogen signaling and is known to be dysregulated in endometrial cancer. Based on this knowledge, we attempt to investigate the role of mTOR signaling in benign endometrial diseases while focusing on how the interplay between mTOR and eukaryotic translation initiation factors (eIFs) affects their development. In fact, mTOR overactivity is apparent in adenomyosis, endometriosis, and typical endometrial hyperplasia, where it promotes endometrial cell proliferation and invasiveness. Recent data show aberrant expression of various components of the mTOR pathway in both eutopic and ectopic endometrium of patients with adenomyosis or endometriosis and in hyperplastic endometrium as well. Moreover, studies on endometritis show that derangement of mTOR signaling is linked to the establishment of endometrial dysfunction caused by chronic inflammation. This review shows that inhibition of the mTOR pathway has a promising therapeutic effect in benign endometrial conditions, concluding that mTOR signaling dysregulation plays a critical part in their pathogenesis.

Abstract
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic gynecological disease that affects women of childbearing age. However, the exact cause remains unclear. The uterus is a highly vascularized organ that continuously exposes endometrial cells to high oxygen concentrations. According to the "planting theory" of EMS pathogenesis, when endometrial cells fall from the uterine cavity and retrograde to the peritoneal cavity, they will face severe hypoxic stress. Hypoxic stress remains a key issue even if successfully implanted into the ovaries or peritoneum. In recent years, increasing evidence has confirmed that hypoxia is closely related to the occurrence and development of EMS. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) can play an essential role in the pathological process of EMS by regulating carbohydrate metabolism, angiogenesis, and energy conversion of ectopic endometrial cells. However, HIF-1α alone is insufficient to achieve the complete program of adaptive changes required for cell survival under hypoxic stress, while the unfolded protein response (UPR) responding to endoplasmic reticulum stress plays an essential supplementary role in promoting cell survival. The formation of a complex signal regulation network by hypoxia-driven UPR may be the cytoprotective adaptation mechanism of ectopic endometrial cells in unfavorable microenvironments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Combined oral contraceptives (COC) and progestogens are widely used for the treatment of endometriosis. The objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of dienogest 2 mg vs continuous oral levonorgestrel/EE (levonorgestrel 0.1 mg/ethinyl estradiol 0.02 mg) on ovarian endometriomas, deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), chronic pelvic pain (CPP), dyspareunia, analgesic use, quality of life (QoL), compliance and side effects. METHODS Prospective cohort study. Two cohorts of patients with endometriosis, 50 taking dienogest (group A) and 50 taking continuous levonorgestrel/EE (group B), were evaluated at the beginning of therapy (t0), after 3 (t3) and 6 months (t6). Size of endometriomas, DIE, QoL, pain symptoms, and side effects were assessed. RESULTS Dienogest was significantly effective on CPP (p = .002), dyspareunia (p = .021) ovarian endometriomas (p = .015) and DIE lesions reduction (p = .014). Levonorgestrel/EE was significantly effective on dyspareunia (p = .023). Analgesics consumption significantly decreased in both groups (p < .001). Both treatments significantly improved the QoL. Over 6 months a significant improvement was found, more frequently in patients taking dienogest. The only side effect that both groups complained about was vaginal bleeding, present in the first 3 months of treatment (p < .001). CONCLUSIONS Both treatments are effective and safe for patients with endometriosis. Patients compliance and side effects are similar in both groups, however, there was a significantly higher reduction in endometriotic lesions, pain symptoms, and improvement of the QoL in women taking dienogest than in women taking continuous COC.

Nuclear factor-kappa B signaling in endometriotic stromal cells is not inhibited by progesterone owing to an aberrant endoplasmic reticulum stress response: a possible role for an altered inflammatory process in endometriosis. Mol Hum Reprod 2021; 27:6122436.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress serves as a key modulator of the inflammatory response by controlling nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) signaling. Previous studies from our laboratory have reported an abnormal induction of ER stress linked to progesterone resistance in human endometriotic cells. Therefore, an aberrant ER stress response to progesterone might contribute to the altered inflammatory response observed in endometriotic tissues. To evaluate this hypothesis, we investigated whether ER stress is involved in regulation of NF-κB in endometrial stromal cells and whether induction of aberrant ER stress in endometriotic stromal cells affects pro-inflammatory cytokine production. We found that tunicamycin-induced ER stress inhibited NF-κB activation and pro-inflammatory cytokine (IL-6 and COX2) production in TNF-α- or IL-1β-treated normal endometrial stromal cells (NECSs). Tunicamycin increased the expression of A20 and C/EBPβ, which are negative regulators of NF-κB, and this increase inhibited NF-κB activity in NESCs incubated with TNF-α or IL-1β. Similarly, progesterone increased A20 and C/EBPβ expression through upregulation of ER stress in NESCs, resulting in inhibition of NF-κB activity and IL-6 and COX2 production. However, progesterone had no significant effects on induction of ER stress, A20 or C/EBPβ expression, NF-κB activity or IL-6 or COX2 production in ovarian endometriotic cyst stromal cells (ECSCs). In contrast, upregulation of ER stress by tunicamycin significantly reduced IL-6 and COX2 production by inhibiting NF-κB activity in ECSCs. In conclusion, our results suggest that NF-κB activity in endometriotic stromal cells was not inhibited because of an aberrant ER stress response to progesterone, resulting in an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokine production.

Abstract
Background: Endometriosis is interpreted as the existence of endometrium outside the uterine cavity, such as ovaries, fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity. Dysmenorrhea, abnormal menstruation, infertility, and chronic pelvic pain are the primary symptoms of endometriosis. Although there are many theories about the origin of endometriosis, the exact factor of the disease has not been confirmed. Therefore, many other mechanisms are still worth exploring. Materials and Methods: The gene lists of the transcription factors (TFs) were selected from the intersections of three databases. The limma R package was used to analyze the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of GSE6364 and GSE7305 and the DEGs intersected with the TFs to obtain the differentially expressed TFs (DETFs). Subsequently, one-way ANOVA and Student's t-test were used to analyze the expression of DETFs in different phases of the endometrium and the endometrium of the infertile and fertile females with endometriosis, respectively. Enrichment analysis and PPI network were performed to reveal the molecular mechanisms of endometriosis. Finally, the plotROC R package was used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of hub TFs for the diagnosis of endometriosis. Results: A total of 54 DETFs were screened out in endometriosis. The expression of up-regulated DETFs was gradually increased from the early secretory to the proliferative phase of the endometrium. Most up-regulated DETFs increased expression in the endometrium of infertile females. The pathways of DETFs were mainly enriched in stem cell differentiation, transcription activity, steroid hormone receptor activity and herpes simplex virus. Two hub TFs (RUNX2 and BATF) and two sub-networks were finally acquired from the PPI network. RUNX2 and BATF also had high diagnostic value in endometriosis. Conclusion: We discovered and analyzed 54 DETFs that were closely related to endometriosis, which would contribute to explore new mechanisms of endometriosis and search for new diagnostic markers and effective therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Psoralen is the principal bioactive component in the dried fruits of Cullen corylifolium (L.) Medik (syn. Psoralea corylifolia L), termed "Buguzhi" in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Recent studies have demonstrated that psoralen displays multiple bioactive properties, beneficial for the treatment of osteoporosis, tumors, viruses, bacteria, and inflammation. The present review focuses on the research evidence relating to the properties of psoralen gathered over recent years. Firstly, multiple studies have demonstrated that psoralen exerts strong anti-osteoporotic effects via regulation of osteoblast/osteoclast/chondrocyte differentiation or activation due to the participation in multiple molecular mechanisms of the wnt/β-catenin, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1)/apoptosis signaling kinase 1 (ASK1)/c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and the Protein Kinase B(AKT)/activator protein-1 (AP-1) axis, and the expression of miR-488, peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ), and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). In addition, the antitumor properties of psoralen are associated with the induction of ER stress-related cell death via enhancement of PERK: Pancreatic Endoplasmic Reticulum Kinase (PERK)/activating transcription factor (ATF), 78kD glucose-regulated protein (GRP78)/C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), and 94kD glucose-regulated protein (GRP94)/CHOP signaling, and inhibition of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or ATPase that overcomes multidrug resistance. Furthermore, multiple articles have shown that the antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects of psoralen are a result of its interaction with viral polymerase (Pol), destroying the formation of biofilm, and regulating the activation of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), interleukin 4/5/6/8/12/13 (IL-4/5/6/8/12/13), GATA-3, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Finally, the toxic effects and mechanisms of action of psoralen have also been reviewed.
