Research Article: Single-Cell Profiling Uncovers the Roles of Endometrial Fibrosis and Microenvironmental Changes in Adenomyosis
Introduction:
Adenomyosis (AM) is defined as the infiltration of ectopic endometrial glands and stroma into the myometrium, causing myometrial inflammation and fibrosis that result in dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, uterine bleeding and subfertility. Although AM is a well-known hormone-sensitive disease, progestogenic agents are not always effective. AM is a benign disease, but it also has some pathophysiological features similar to malignant tumors including abnormal proliferation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, migration and invasion.…
