CXCL1 expression in human decidua in vitro is mediated via the MAPK signalling cascade.

Highlights: [•] Regulation of CXCL1 expression in human decidua in vitro was examined. [•] CXCL1 expression is influenced by embryonic surrogate marker IL-1β. [•] CXCL1 secretion relies on MAPK pathway in endometrial stromal cells. [•] Embryonic surrogate marker IL-1β induces phosphorylation of NFκB. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
