Published in 2020 at "Current Opinion in Physiology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.cophys.2019.10.017

Abstract: Estrogen and estrogen action in the myometrium are necessary for a successful pregnancy. Estrogen is required for both the myometrial hyperplastic phase of gestation as well as the contractile response that leads to parturition at… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of Perinatology"

DOI: 10.1038/jp.2016.271

Abstract: Objective:There is controversy as to whether maternal body mass index (BMI) influences the contractility of human myometrium in pregnancy. The aim of this study was to examine spontaneous contractile activity of human pregnant myometrium in… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Human reproduction update"

DOI: 10.1093/humupd/dmaa038

Abstract: BACKGROUND Adenomyosis is a benign gynecological disorder associated with subfertility, pelvic pain and abnormal uterine bleeding that have significant consequences for the health and quality of life of women. Histologically, it is defined as the… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Reproductive Sciences"

DOI: 10.1177/1933719116687657

Abstract: KIR7.1, an inwardly rectifying K+ channel, plays a critical role in regulating uterine excitability during pregnancy and has been suggested as a potential new target for the treatment of conditions arising from dysfunctional uterine contractility,… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "PLoS Biology"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3000710

Abstract: During gestation, uterine smooth muscle cells transition from a state of quiescence to one of contractility, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this transition at a genomic level are not well-known. To better understand these events,… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Reproduction"

DOI: 10.1530/rep-18-0140

Abstract: Preterm birth continues to be the leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidities that can extend into adult life. Few treatment options stem from our incomplete understanding of the mechanisms of human labour and delivery.… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "International Journal of Women's Health"

DOI: 10.2147/ijwh.s163961

Abstract: Background Previously, we reported a significantly higher prevalence of uterine fibroids (UFs) in African American women. This minority group also commonly suffers from vitamin D deficiency. We have demonstrated that 1,25(OH)2D3 attains a fibroid growth… read more here.
