Progesterone (P4) is essential for pregnancy establishment and maintenance. Clinically, P4 is widely used to regulate the menstrual cycle, maintain pregnancy, and treat luteal phase deficiency. However, P4 administration protocols, particul…
INTRODUCTION: Nutritional deficiency occurs frequently during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Tryptophan (Trp), an essential amino acid which is critical for protein synthesis, serves as the precursor for serotonin, melatonin, and kynurenine (…
BACKGROUND: Decidualization is essential to the successful pregnancy in mice. The molecular mechanisms and effects of Aurora kinase A (Aurora A) remain poorly understood during pregnancy. This study is the first to investigate the expressio…
Decidualization is an essential step in the establishment of pregnancy. However, the functional contributions of long intergenic noncoding RNAs (LincRNAs) to decidualization have not been explored. To explore the regulation and role of Linc…
