Human tissues of the decidua including two compartments were collected immediately after delivery (37 (link)). In brief, the decidua basalis and parietalis were collected from basal plate and chorioamniotic membranes, respectively. Tissues were washed with ice-cold sterile phosphate buffer saline (PBS) to remove the blood and then divided into two parts (Figure 1). One part was fixed with polyformaldehyde, embedded in paraffin and cut into sections (3 μm) for immunohistochemical analysis, while the other part of fresh decidua basalis and parietalis (20 g) were rinsed thoroughly with sterile PBS containing 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Cat. 10378016, Gibco) to remove the blood, and were then cut and homogenized using a gentleMACS Dissociator (Miltenyi Biotec) in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 0.25% Trypsin (Cat. G4001, Servicebio), collagenase Type IV (Cat. G5027, Servicebio) at 1.0 mg/ml concentration, and deoxyribonuclease I (Cat. B002004, Sangon Biotech) at 0.1 mg/ml concentration (15 (link), 37 (link)). Subsequently, homogenized tissues were digested for 60 min at 37°C with gentle agitation, then filtered through a 70 μm cell strainer (Cat. BS-70-XBS, Biosharp) and washed in PBS to obtain single-cell suspensions, which were stored in liquid nitrogen for future flow cytometry analysis.

Each batch of dECM was fabricated from three piglets' submucosal tissue. A conjoint decellularization strategy modified from established protocols for porcine intestine was used subsequently. To initiate decellularization, submucosal tissue pieces were placed in pure water (Spring‐R10; RSJ, Xiamen, China) overnight at 4°C. Washed tissue was decellularized in 4% SDC (30970; Sigma‐Aldrich, St. louis, MO, USA) for 4 h at room temperature. After SDC treatment, the tissue was washed with pure water for 24 h at 4°C, with water change every 6 h. Afterwards, a step of 2000kU DNase‐I (11284932001; Sigma‐Aldrich) in 1 M NaCl was performed for 3 h at room temperature. The tissue was washed with pure water again for 48 h at 4°C, with water changed every 6 h. A rotator at 60 rpm (DS‐S 100; Servicebio, Wuhan, China) was used throughout the decellularization and rinsing. Rinsed tissue was lyophilized (LGJ‐12; HUAYU XIONGDI, Zhengzhou, China) for 72 h and milled (Tissuelyser‐24; Jingxin, Shanghai. China) into a fine powder that could pass through a 70 μm cell strainer (BS‐70‐XBS; Biosharp, Anhui, China). Acquired dECM powder was stored at −20°C until further use.
