Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) may regulate uterine activation and cervical ripening for labor
through specific contractile and relaxatory receptors (EP1-4). The aim of this study was to …

OBJECTIVE: The effects of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) are mediated through G-protein
coupled receptors, acting via different second messengers. The aim of this study was to …

Context: Prostaglandins are central to the processes of human labor. Prostaglandin E2
(PGE2) synthesized within the uterus mediates cervical ripening and uterine contractions …

Prostaglandin (PG) E analogs are used clinically to ripen the cervix and induce labor.
However, selective receptor agonists may have potential to improve induction response …

Abstract Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) plays a key role in the maintenance of human pregnancy
and labour onset. PGE2 can elicit diverse actions within the uterus depending on the PGE2 …

OBJECTIVE: Prostaglandins play an important role in the regulation of parturition and
cervical ripening. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)–induced tissue remodeling is mediated through …

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) exerts diverse biological effects through four G-protein-coupled
cell surface receptor subtypes, EP1–4. This study's objective was to characterize EP1–4 …

As an initial step to clarify the mechanisms of various uterine actions of PGE2, expression
patterns of the messenger RNAs (mRNAs) for four subtypes of PGE receptors, EP1, EP2 …

In the rodent uterus, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is believed to have a major role in
implantation and decidualization. The present study investigated the temporal and hormonal …

Objective To investigate expression and localization of prostaglandin receptors EP 1‐4 and
FP and localization of stromal factors CTGF (connective tissue growth factor), furin …
