Progesterone receptor-mediated regulation of N-acetylneuraminate pyruvate lyase (NPL) in mouse uterine luminal epithelium and nonessential role of NPL in uterine function.

Progesterone receptor-mediated regulation of N-acetylneuraminate pyruvate lyase (NPL) in mouse uterine luminal epithelium and nonessential role of NPL in uterine function.

N-acetylneuraminate pyruvate lyase (NPL) catalyzes N-acetylneuraminic acid, the predominant sialic acid. Microarray analysis of the periimplantation mouse uterine luminal epithelium (LE) revealed Npl being the most downregulated (35×) gene in the LE upon embryo implantation. In natural pregnant mous...
