Article Synopsis
- Age-related changes in the myometrium can complicate pregnancy, increasing maternal mortality risks significantly for women over 40.
- Using advanced sequencing techniques, researchers created a comprehensive cellular map of the aging myometrium from 186,120 cells of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, identifying 23 distinct cell subpopulations.
- Findings reveal that aging results in diminished contractile cell numbers and disrupted communication between myometrial cells, affecting critical pathways connected to tissue repair, immunity, and the overall functioning of the uterus during pregnancy and labor.
