NLRP7 contributes to in vitro decidualization of endometrial stromal cells
Background Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NACHT), leucine rich repeat (LRR) and pyrin domain (PYD) 7 containing protein, NLRP7, is a member of the NLR family which serves as innate immune sensors.

ABSTRACT Early pregnancy loss (EPL) is a common complication with incompletely understood pathogenesis. Recent studies highlight the roles of exosomes and their miRNAs in intercellular communication, and the influence of uterine decidual microbiota on pregnancy outcomes.

During the secretory phase of the menstrual cycle, endometrial fibroblast cells begin to change into large epithelial-like cells called decidual cells in a process called decidualization. This differentiation continues more broadly in the endometrium and

Prolactin signaling through the short isoform of the mouse prolactin receptor regulates DNA binding of specific transcription factors, often with opposite effects in different reproductive issues [PDF]
Background It has been well established that prolactin (PRL) signals through the long form of its receptor (PRL-RL) and activates the Jak/Stat pathway for transcription of PRL target genes.

Participation of COX2/mPGES1/PGE2 in mouse and human endometrial stromal decidualization
Background Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is vital for embryo implantation and decidualization. Whether COX2/mPGES1/PGE2 pathway is essential for mouse and human decidualization remains unclear.

Molecular Basis of Impaired Decidualization in the Eutopic Endometrium of Endometriosis Patients
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. A common feature of this pathology is the impaired decidualization of endometrial stromal cells, a critical process that ...

Loss of miR-542-3p enhances IGFBP-1 expression in decidualizing human endometrial stromal cells [PDF]
Endometrial decidualization represents an essential step for the successful implantation of the embryo; however, the molecular mechanism behind this differentiation process remains unclear.

G-protein coupled receptor 64 is required for decidualization of endometrial stromal cells
Although GPR64 has an important role for male fertility, its physiological roles in the female reproductive system are still unknown. In the present study, immunohistochemical analysis reveals a spatiotemporal expression of GPR64 in the uterus during ...
