STUDY QUESTION: Can oocyte maturation be adapted to a phenotypic assay within a drug screening pipeline to identify compounds that block meiotic progression for female non-hormonal contraceptive drug discovery? SUMMARY ANSWER: A complex ph…
The uterus is a dynamic organ in which the endometrium undergoes cyclic processes of proliferation, shedding, and regeneration under the influence of estrogen and progesterone. In particular, estrogen regulates the proliferation and differe…
Elucidating the molecular intricacies governing uterine function is crucial for reproductive success. The purinergic receptor P2Y, G-protein coupled 2 (P2ry2), regulates critical cellular processes, and we investigated the mechanisms by whi…
In mice, the uterus undergoes dynamic changes regulated by estrogen and progesterone during the estrous cycle. Proper regulation of these changes is critical for successful pregnancy. The Family with sequence similarity 3 (Fam3) gene family…
