DOI: 10.1002/dvg.23473
Abstract: An estimated 75% of unsuccessful pregnancies are due to implantation failure. Investigating the causes of implantation failure is difficult as decidualization and embryo implantation is a dynamic process. Here, we describe a new decidua‐specific iCre… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-025-08146-0
Abstract: Cre-recombinase inducible model systems are extensively used in cancer research to manipulate gene expression in specific tissues and induce autochthonous tumor growth. These systems often involve the cross-breeding of genetically engineered organisms containing loxP-flanked alleles… read more here.
