However, the exact pathogenesis and critical molecules of endometriosis remain unclear. Here, we find that alanyl-tRNA synthetase 1 (AARS1) is abundantly expressed in endometrial tissues and promotes the proliferation, migratory capability, and invasive potential in endometriotic stromal cells (EESC) and 11Z cells. Moreover, AARS1 enhances epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in EESC and 11Z cells. In addition, AARS1 could lactylate Snail1 to maintain its protein stability. In summary, this work identifies a crucial role of AARS1 in advancing endometriosis, which may provide new insights into its pathogenesis and future disease management.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/biolre\/ioaf188","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,14]],"date-time":"2025-08-14T11:56:53Z","timestamp":1755172613000},"page":"1209-1218","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["AARS1 promotes endometriosis progression by promoting the lactylation of Snail1"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"113","author":[{"given":"Lan","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Reproductive Medicine, Affiliated Hospital of Shandong Second Medical University , Weifang, Shandong Province ,","place":["P.R.
