a A diagram of the experimental workflow for single-cell transcriptome profiling of mouse uteri on day 4 of pregnancy. Created in BioRender. Li, B. (2025) https://BioRender.com/v89y654. b A UMAP of the major cell types in mouse uteri on day 4. c The expression of marker genes across different cell types. d The Pearson correlation of genes’ expression in different cell types. e UMAP visualization of the expression of selected marker genes Epcam, Foxa2, and Wnt7a in epithelial cells. f A pie chart showing the cell proportions of all cell types in the single-cell analysis. The number of glandular cells is intentionally increased to better investigate subgroups and function of glands.
