Postnatal aromatase blockade increases c-fos mRNA responses to acute restraint stress in adult male rats.

abstract：:Inflammation can interfere with endometrial receptivity. We examined how interleukin 1β (IL-1β) affects expression of the uterine gap junction protein connexin 43 (Cx43), which is known to be critical for embryonic implantation. We used an in vitro model of human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs), Western blotting, and...
