Create an alternative birth control pills that will have fewer side effects, reported by British scientists. Scientists at the University of Cambridge conducted a study in which a molecule found (STAT3), facilitates the placement of the embryo implanted in the uterus. A drug, which will block the activity of this molecule contraceptive effect be in contrast to the modern tablet, not affect, or hormones increase the risk of blood clots. The study was published in the British Academy of Sciences and funded by the WHO as part of the program to identify new methods of contraception. The researchers claim that the molecule STAT3 play a key role in the "message signal" is playing on the walls of the uterus, an embryo can be secured. Without this signal, the embryo will be cut off, and the pregnancy will not occur. Pharmaceutical companies on the possibility of blocking STAT3 work because this molecule plays a role in the formation of tumors, and the incidence of diabetes. According to researcher Dr. Andrew Sharkey Cambridge lead, recent data, the development of experimental drugs can also be used as a contraceptive. Meanwhile, in parallel to study the question of whether a violation of the "signal" function of the molecule STAT3 lead to certain forms of infertility. If so, the researchers hope to treat some cases of infertility caused by the reactivation of the function.
