Progesterone, but not β-estradiol, enhances Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide-induced vascular endothelial growth factor-A expression in human THP-1 monocytes
Background/purpose: Progesterone and estrogen levels are elevated during pregnancy and play a role in maternal immune responses. In addition, unbalanced metabolism of growth factors has been demonstrated in pregnancy tumors. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of progesterone and β-estradi...
