Abstract

Uterine perivascular adipose tissue secretes exosome-like vesicles, which are internalized by their adjacent uterine vascular smooth muscle cells. Consideration of the exosomal communication between adipose tissue and vascular smooth muscle cells in the uterine circulation in mathematical models and experimental designs may help us to improve understanding of mechanisms underlying uterine artery adaptive responses to a healthy pregnancy and during pregnancy complications.
