Meanings of decidual in English

As a first step we characterized the intracellular morphology of decidual cells.

Several prophylactic procedures have been presented to prevent decidual contamination of the wound.

Evidence is presented here that not all decidual SAR during this period is uNK cell-dependent.

Main results and the role of chance: The kisspeptin receptor was expressed in human decidual stromal cells.

The motile behavior and invasive potential of decidual stromal cells regulate embryo implantation and programming of human pregnancy.

In addition, inhibition of the function of decidual Treg cells has an important role in iNKT cell-mediated pregnancy loss.

Results: Annexin V was found on the cell membrane and in the cytoplasm of the decidual cells and stroma.

These findings suggest that decidual stromal cells are a cellular source of BAFF for B cells present in decidua during pregnancy.

In the mouse, decidual cells differentiate from uterine stromal cells in response to steroid hormones and signals arising from the embryo.

Additionally, GATA2 continues to be expressed in the decidualized stroma throughout early pregnancy indicating a role in the maintenance of decidual cells.

Here, we sought to investigate whether maternal-derived decidual stromal cells from placenta secrete BAFF and examine what factors could stimulate this production.

In contrast, no Cx43 transcripts were found in the placenta proper, but only in the maternally derived decidual cap covering the placenta.

The lack of a decidual response could be partially rescued by an intrauterine injection of LIF before the initiation of the decidual response.

These results suggest that the p38 signaling pathway is involved in decidual function at the late stage of gestation and may contribute to parturition.

Wider implications of the findings: Kisspeptin acting within the endometrium has a potential modulatory role on embryo implantation and decidual programming of human pregnancy.

Ablation of Cited2 in the uterus resulted in a significant reduction in the ability of the uterus to undergo a hormonally induced decidual reaction.
