Abstract: Progesterone-induced blocking factor (PIBF) is a protein secreted by lymphocytes exposed to progesterone (P4). P4 and PIBF have immunomodulatory effects on peripheral CD4+ T cells during normal pregnancy. Membrane progesterone receptors (mPRs) may correlate with… read more here.

Abstract: In addition to being immunomodulatory, Progesterone-Induced Blocking Factor (PIBF) plays a role in cell cycle regulation and invasion. The full length protein is associated with the pericentriolar satellites and as such, it is crucial for… read more here.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION The proteins galectin-1 and Progesterone Induced Blocking Factor (PIBF) are present on human and murine trophoblast and are thought to influence both immunomodulation and trophoblast invasion. In equids, the invasive component of the placenta,… read more here.
