Additional Comments Follistatin is critical for mouse uterine receptivity and decidualization.In the absence of uterine FST, activin B expression and signaling are up-regulated, and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signals are impaired.Circulating follistatin is increased in conditions associated with insulin resistance.The glucagon-to-insulin ratio has been identified to regulate circulating follistatin.
