Menin directs regionalized decidual transformation through epigenetically setting PTX3 to balance FGF and BMP signaling

The decidualization of endometrial stroma is critical for pregnancy maintenance. Here the authors reveal that Menin ensures the expression of PTX3 through H3K4me3 modification, to balance the BMP and FGF signal in the decidua for normal pregnancy.
