Differential Expression of the Enzymatic System Controlling Synthesis, Metabolism, and Transport of PGF2 Alpha in Human Fetal Membranes1
1 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
The present study investigated the expression of genes and proteins associated with PGF2alpha biosynthesis, catabolism, and transport in matched amnion and choriodecidua of human term placenta. The concentration of PGF2alpha within fetal membranes depends on the balance between complex enzymatic systems responsible for, respectively, its synthesis-by prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2) and members of...
