Hormonal fluctuations during the estrous cycle modulate Heme Oxygenase-1 expression in the uterus
Deletion of the Heme Oxygenase-1 (Hmox1) locus in mice results in intrauterine lethality. The expression of the heme catabolyzing enzyme encoded by this gene, namely HO 1, is required to successfully support reproductive events. We have previously observed that HO-1 acts at several key events in rep...
