Decidual macrophages as therapeutic targets in preterm labour.
The initiation of labour in humans remains poorly understood, although there is mounting evidence for a role for decidual macrophages. These may trigger labour by promoting a proinflammatory state, thereby modulating progesterone signalling and weakening fetal membranes. Preclinical work targeting macrophages therapeutically shows promise in preventing preterm labour, underscoring their significance in this process.
期刊介绍:
Trends in Molecular Medicine (TMM) aims to offer concise and contextualized perspectives on the latest research advancing biomedical science toward better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human diseases. It focuses on research at the intersection of basic biology and clinical research, covering new concepts in human biology and pathology with clear implications for diagnostics and therapy. TMM reviews bridge the gap between bench and bedside, discussing research from preclinical studies to patient-enrolled trials. The major themes include disease mechanisms, tools and technologies, diagnostics, and therapeutics, with a preference for articles relevant to multiple themes. TMM serves as a platform for discussion, pushing traditional boundaries and fostering collaboration between scientists and clinicians. The journal seeks to publish provocative and authoritative articles that are also accessible to a broad audience, inspiring new directions in molecular medicine to enhance human health.
