abstract：:Remodeling and relaxation of the mouse pubic symphysis (PS) are central events in parturition. The mouse PS remodels in a hormone-controlled process that involves the modification of the fibrocartilage into an interpubic ligament (IpL), followed by its relaxation prior to parturition. It is recognized that nitric oxid...
