Abstract:
We have determined the effects of separating chorion from decidua on the production of cytokines and prostaglandins. Chorionic production always exceeded that of decidua. Production rates were significantly greater in separated explants compared with intact choriodecidua, which suggests a potential contact paracrine inhibitory network.
