Mitochondria remodeling during endometrial stromal cell decidualization

Abstract excerpt

Upon hormonal stimulation, uterine endometrial stromal cells undergo a dramatic morpho-functional metamorphosis that allows them to secrete large amounts of matrix proteins, cytokines, and growth factors. This step, known as decidualization, is crucial for embryo implantation. We previously demonstrated how the secretory pathway is remodelled during this process. Here we show that hormonal stimulation rapidly...
