Real‐Time in Vivo Monitoring of Circulating Endometrial Cells: Uncovering Systemic Dissemination and Temporal Fluctuations in Endometriosis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 53, 24 September 2026.
A dual‐color pseudo‐menstrual mouse model enables real‐time tracing of circulating endometrial cells (CECs) from uterine and ectopic sources. The study reveals menstrual‐phase‐dependent, burst‐like CEC release, distinct postoperative behaviors of different CEC origins, and a potential association with prolactin fluctuations, providing an in vivo ...

TSG From Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. Attenuates Experimental Premature Ovarian Insufficiency in Association With Reduced ZBP1/PANoptosis Signaling

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study shows that TSG, the major bioactive constituent of Polygonum multiflorum Thunb., ameliorates POI in association with suppression of ZBP1‐driven PANoptosis. In a POI rat model, TSG restored estrous cyclicity, improved hormone profiles, and preserved follicular reserve.
