a Real time PCR analysis of PDK1, PDK2, PDK3, and PDK4 during decidualization. b Immunohistochemical analysis of PDK4 protein in human endometrium during the menstrual cycle. Scale bar = 100 μm; s stromal cells; * glandular lumen. c IGFBP1 expression during decidualization; d PRL expression during decidualization. e PDK4 expression during decidualization. f Western blot analysis of PDK4 protein during decidualization. g Western blot analysis of p-PDHE1α, PKM2 and LDHA levels during decidualization. h RT-PCR analysis of GLUT1, G6PDH and LDHA mRNA expression during decidualization. i Western blot analysis of monomeric, dimeric and tetramer PKM2 proteins in decidual cells. RPL7 was used as internal control for real time PCR, and GAPDH as an internal control for Western blot.
