Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 Functions via a Conserved Signaling Pathway Involving Wnt4 to Regulate Uterine Decidualization in the Mouse and the Human
22 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
A critical role of progesterone (P) during early pregnancy is to induce differentiation of the endometrial stromal cells into specialized decidual cells that support the development of the implanting embryo. The P-induced signaling pathways that participate in the formation and function of the decidual cells remain poorly understood. We report here that the expression of the bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), a...
