Key molecules for decidualization are depicted in this hybrid cartoon as gathered from mouse and human studies. The decidua is composed of differentiated stromal (decidual) cells, many of which are terminally differentiated (polyploid). Decidualization involves coordination of several processes, including polyploidy, and several types of molecules, such as cytokine receptors, enzymes, morphogens, hormones and transcription factors. ADM, adrenomedullin; BV, blood vessel; DEDD, death effector domain–containing protein; IL-11Rα, interleukin 11 receptor α; mTORC1, mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1; SGK1, serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1; Sphk1/2, sphingosine kinase 1/2.
