Partial rescue of PTH/PTHrP receptor knockout mice by targeted expression of the Jansen transgene.

abstract：:Infection-induced inflammation, frequently associated with increased production of proinflammatory cytokines, is considered a significant contributor to preterm birth. A G protein-coupled cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2), encoded by Cnr2, is expressed in various immune cells and was shown to modulate immune responses. We ...
