IL-1β release from maternal blood mononuclear cells (MBMCs). (A) Coincubation with LPS and BzATP elicited greater production of IL-1β from MBMCs. P4, prolactin, the NFkB inhibitor QNZ and the caspase-1 inhibitor YVAD-CHO all inhibited IL-1β release. (B) Western blotting showed positive expression for the P4 receptor in choriodecidua (CD; n = 6), some expression in PLBMCs (n = 6) but undetectable levels in CBMCs (n = 6). *P < 0.05 when compared using Dunnett's test.
