Steroid Metabolome Profiling Identifies a Unique Androgen Hormone Signature Associated with Endometriosis Endometriosis is a chronic, hormone-dependent condition that affects 190 million women worldwide. There are no validated biomarkers for endometriosis and this delays diagnosis and treatment. We perfo...

We're very excited about this work! Using steroid metabolome profiling we found a unique hormone signature that could be used as a potential non-invasive diagnostic test for endometriosis. Please check out and share the preprint #endometriosis www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

A group of women stand in Scottish Parliament, in front of a banner and holding a board in yellow and red with the words "I'm supporting ENDOMETRIOSIS ACTION MONTH, Endometriosis UK". They are smiling at the camera.

A group of approximately 25 people are standing and chatting in a Scottish Parliament room. The room has a large table with lots of microphones on it.

Monica Lennon MSP stands at a lecturn giving a talk. She is standing in front of a large tv screen with the words "Dismissed, ignored and belittled" on it.

To wrap up #EndometriosisActionMonth, we wanted to share our visit to ScotParl last week. Ann & Priscilla represented ENDO1000 as honored guests of Endometriosis UK.
Speakers were optimistic that Scotland could siginficantly reduce diagnosis time by 2030 - down to under a year 🤞

Dynamic roles of ILC3 in endometrial repair and regeneration AbstractBackground. Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) are prominent in the human uterine mucosa and play physiological roles in pregnancy. ILC3 are the second-mo

👩🏾‍🔬 Lab alumna Antonia Cuff wondered about the role of #ILC3 in the uterine mucosa.

🧪 ILC3 are most numerous & active at times of repair & regeneration

🧪 They with epithelial and endothelial cells

🧪 But do this less in ppl with #endometriosis

East coast view of sea outside Berwick

The river tweed, bridge and early morning sun

On the train to Newcastle this morning before changing to get to Oxford for a viva. The views down the east coast did not disappoint. Let's hope the cross-country service doesn't either!

Gave some advice yesterday on how to respond to #reviewers to #proposals and was encouraging people to contact mentors with experience of the specific call to sense check responses. But aware not everyone has this pool to hand, so a few of the headlines from conversation. Please chip in.

Painful Endometriosis Can Affect the Whole Body, Not Only the Pelvis This disease is now genetically linked to widespread inflammation, asthma, migraines, and more

"there’s been a complete reframing of this disorder as a neuroinflammatory whole-body condition" - CRH's Philippa Saunders spoke to Scientific American about changing understanding of #endometriosis away from it being purely gynaecological www.scientificamerican.com/article/pain...
