Progesterone increases metabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway in bovine uterine epithelial cells
Progesterone increased glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase expression and metabolism via the pentose phosphate pathway in the bovine uterine epithelium. This metabolism could provide substrates for cell proliferation, molecules to be secreted into the uterine lumen, or maintain reduction/oxidation balance in the uterine epithelium.
