These studies were undertaken to evaluate the changes in mRNA expression of
prostaglandin H synthase (PGHS)-1 and-2 in murine gestational tissues during the latter half
of pregnancy. Gestational tissues (decidual caps, membranes surrounding the fetus, and
placentae), uterus, and cervix were collected from pregnant mice at days 12, 14, 16, 18, and
19 (am and pm) of gestation (n= 4), and total RNA was isolated and evaluated for PGHS-1
and PGHS-2 expression by northern blot analysis. Expression was normalized to GAPDH …
