Popis: Problem. Some G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are regulators of inflammation, yet the role of the GPRC, GPR91, is unknown in human myometrium during the processes of human labor and delivery, a major inflammatory event. Method of Study. GPR91 mRNA expression was assessed using RT-qPCR in myometrium obtained from women at term Caesarean section in the absence of labor and during active spontaneous labor and in a mouse model of inflammation-induced preterm labor. Human primary myometrial cells were used to determine the effect of proinflammatory mediators on GPR91 and the effect of GPR91 siRNA on prolabor mediators. Statistical significance was ascribed to a P
