Leptin Upregulates the Expression of β3-integrin, MMP9, HB-EGF, and IL-1β in Primary Porcine Endometrium Epithelial Cells in Vitro
Obesity has become a global health problem. Research suggests that leptin, a hormone that responds to fat deposition, may be involved in mammalian reproduction; however, its precise role in embryo implantation is poorly understood. Here, primary porcine endometrium epithelium cells (PEECs) were cult...
