| Research Abstract |
Our objective was to clarify the effect of AMPK on production of chemokines and prostaglandins by human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs). The phosphorylations of AMPK were observed by treatment with AICAR. Moreover, IL-1-stimulated chemokines and PG production was decreased by a mechanism involving AMPK. AMPK may play an important role in the anti-inflammatory effect resulting to reduction of chemokines and PG production, which may contribute to the modulation of a local factor in human endometrium.
