Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to investigate relaxin (RLX) receptor-mediated gene activation in human endometrium. We determined the promoter activities of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) and prolactin (PRL) and identified sequence(s) that mediate RLX activated transcription in human decidual cells and endometrial stromal cells. In human decidual cells, the promoter activity of IGFBP-1 was...
