Exogenous oxytocin modulates human myometrial microRNAs
7 Mar 2015
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a modulatory role in pathways that lead to labor onset, although oxytocin is known to modulate gene expression within the myometrium. We aimed to identify miRNAs whose expression is regulated by oxytocin in pregnant human myometrium. STUDY DESIGN: Myometrial miRNA expression profiles were compared between samples collected from women at term before the onset of labor (no labor;...
