Article Synopsis
- Researchers examined the roles of prostaglandins (PGs) in the uterus by studying various PG receptor expressions during pregnancy, finding key receptors in luminal and stromal cells.
- The expression of the DP receptor was notably induced in stromal cells after embryo attachment, aligning with COX-2 expression, while both PGD and PGE were synthesized in significant amounts during implantation.
- The study revealed that the DP and EP4 receptors play crucial roles in the process of decidualization, with pharmacological interventions suggesting their coordinated functions despite the lack of impact from DP/EP2 double deficiency.
