Placental diagnostic criteria and clinical correlation--a workshop report.

abstract：:The possible roles of cyclic AMP and protein kinase C in the release of renin from human decidual cells were investigated by examining renin release from monolayers of decidual cells exposed for 72 h to agents that increase intracellular cAMP or activate protein kinase C. Dibutyryl cAMP (10-1000 microM caused a dose-d...
