The invention relates to a medicine for treating endometriosis, in particular to a Chinese medicine oral decoction for treating endometriosis, which is prepared by using Chinese herbal medicines as raw materials. The invention adopts the technical scheme that the Chinese medicine oral decoction comprises the following raw medicinal materials in parts by weight: 4-12g of bupleurum, 4-12g of salvia miltiorrhiza, 4-12g of achyranthes, 5-15g of red paeony roots, 5-15g of pollen typhae, 5-15g of hemlock parsley, 5-15g of barbary wolfberry fruits, 5-15g of herba epimedii and 5-15g of Chinese dodder seeds. In the invention, all the raw medicinal materials are reasonably mixed to achieve the efficacies of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, clearing heat and detoxicating, relieving stasis and stopping pain, removing heat from the blood and dispersing swelling, calming the mind, relaxing bowel, and the like. By oral administration, the Chinese medicine oral decoction can regulate inner body, strengthen the body resistance to consolidate the constitution, regulate endocrine disturbance, enhance immune functions of human bodies, balance yin and yang, restore the Zang-Fu functions in dynamic balance, and effectively treat endometriosis. The invention has the advantages of no side effect, economy, practicability and simple method, and can be prepared independently. The invention is applicable to patients with slight endometriosis accompanied with luteal insufficiency or ovulation failure.

The invention relates to detection of individuals having or at risk of developing endometriosis based on the presence of one or more polymorphism in a gene associated with the fibrinolytic pathway, and methods for treating or preventing endometriosis by modulating the fibrinolytic pathway.

The present invention provides a method of diagnosing endometriosis and/or infertility in a subject, comprising: a) obtaining a sample from the subject; b) detecting a level of expression of a SIRT1 gene and/or protein in the sample; c) detecting a level of expression of a BCL6 gene and/or protein in the sample; d) comparing the level of expression detected in (b) with the level of expression of a SIRT1 gene and/or protein in a sample obtained from a control subject or a population of control subjects; e) comparing the level of expression detected in (c) with the level of expression of a BCL6 gene and/or protein in a sample obtained from a control subject or a population of control subjects; and f) diagnosing the subject as having infertility when the subject has a level of expression of the SIRT1 gene and/or protein greater than the level of expression of the SIRT1 gene and/or protein of the control subject or population of control subjects and also has a level of expression of the BCL6 gene and/or protein that is greater than the level of expression of the BCL6 gene and/or protein of the control subject or population of control subjects.

In some aspects, the disclosure relates to methods for screening clinical samples for the presence of L-form bacteria associated with endometriosis and/or ovarian fibroid tumors. The disclosure is based, in part, on screening methods used to diagnose a subject as likely having or likely not having endometriosis and/or an ovarian fibroid tumor. In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods of treating endometriosis by administering an antibiotic to a subject that has been determined to be infected by one or more strains of L-form bacteria.

Use of serum microvesicle-asparagine endopeptidase pseudogene 1 in the preparation of a biomarker for diagnosing endometriosis or predicting the recurrence of endometriosis, serum microvesicle-asparagine endopeptide The gene sequence of the enzyme pseudogene 1 is shown in SEQ ID NO.1. Also provided is a kit for diagnosing endometriosis or predicting the recurrence of endometriosis, containing reagents for detecting EV-LGMNP1, including upstream primer sequences, downstream primer sequences and probes, the sequences of which are as shown in SEQ ID NO.5-7. It was found that EV-LGMNP1 could be detected in the serum of patients with endometriosis, and its expression level was significantly higher than that of women without endometriosis, and its expression was significantly increased in patients with recurrent endometriosis. Novel non-invasive biomarkers for the diagnosis of endometriosis, prediction of endometriosis recurrence, and condition monitoring.

The present invention relates to methods of assessing whether a patient has endometriosis or is at risk of developing endometriosis, to methods of selecting a patient for therapy, and method of monitoring a patient suffering from endometriosis or being treated for endometriosis by determining the amount or concentration of S100A8 in a sample of the patient, and comparing the determined amount or concentration to a reference.

The invention discloses an application of an FGFR2c extracellular domain analogue in preparation of a medicine for preventing and treating endometriosis, and the FGFR2c extracellular domain analogue has a good effect of reducing the size of a mouse endometriosis focus and the fibrosis area, and is superior to that of a gestotrione group. A new means is provided for clinically preparing medicines for treating endometriosis and all diseases related to fibrosis.

The present invention relates to isolated ligands of anti-Mullerian hormone marked so as to be directly detectable by means of magnetic resonance imaging in the endometriosic lesions. In particular, such ligands can be used in a method for diagnosing in vivo endometriosis wherein said method comprises a passage of localizing and/or evaluating the entity of the endometriosic lesions in a patient.

The present invention relates to methods of assessing whether a patient has endometriosis or is at risk of developing endometriosis, to methods of selecting a patient for therapy, and method of monitoring a patient suffering from endometriosis or being treated for endometriosis by determining the amount or concentration of S100A6 in a sample of the patient, and comparing the determined amount or concentration to a reference.

The present invention relates to methods of assessing whether a patient has endometriosis or is at risk of developing endometriosis, to methods of selecting a patient for therapy, and method of monitoring a patient suffering from endometriosis or being treated for endometriosis by determining the amount or concentration of S100A12 in a sample of the patient, and comparing the determined amount or concentration to a reference.

The present invention relates to methods of assessing whether a patient has endometriosis or is at risk of developing endometriosis, to methods of selecting a patient for therapy, and method of monitoring a patient suffering from endometriosis or being treated for endometriosis by determining the amount or concentration of Substance P in a sample of the patient, and comparing the determined amount or concentration to a reference.

The present invention relates to methods of assessing whether a patient has endometriosis or is at risk of developing endometriosis, to methods of selecting a patient for therapy, and method of monitoring a patient suffering from endometriosis or being treated for endometriosis by determining the amount or concentration of S100A9 in a sample of the patient, and comparing the determined amount or concentration to a reference.

It has been discovered that plasma samples from endometriosis patients contain a number of markers whose abundance is different from those in healthy individuals. It has also been discovered that, by measuring the abundance of those markers, whether or not a subject is affected by endometriosis can be diagnosed, the extent of endometrial fibrosis or adhesion in a subject can be determined, pain of a patient affected or suspected of being affected by endometriosis can be predicted, and pathological conditions of the patient can be monitored.
