Prolactin enhances uteroglobin gene expression by uteri of immature rabbits.
The effect of prolactin on uteroglobin production by immature rabbits was studied with neonatal (1 day old) and juvenile (14 days old) does. The animals were divided into 11 treatment groups for each age category and exposed to a 9-day injection protocol. Each day the animals received a subcutaneous injection of oestradiol-17 beta and/or ovine prolactin and/or progesterone, or were sham-injecte...
متن کاملIdentification of temporal patterns of gene expression in the uteri of immature, ovariectomized mice following exposure to ethynylestradiol.
Estrogen induction of uterine wet weight provides an excellent model to investigate relationships between changes in global gene expression and well-characterized physiological responses. In this study, time course microarray GeneChip data were analyzed using a novel approach to identify temporal changes in uterine gene expression following treatment of immature ovariectomized C57BL/6 mice with...
متن کاملExpression of prolactin gene and secretion of prolactin by rat retinal capillary endothelial cells.
PURPOSE Prolactin fragments inhibit blood vessel formation, whereas anti-prolactin antibodies induce angiogenesis in the cornea. Endothelial cells from brain capillaries and the umbilical vein produce prolactin, and this study was undertaken to determine whether retinal capillary endothelial cells could be a source for prolactin in the eye. METHODS Primary cultures of rat retinal endothelial ...
متن کاملVitrification Affects Nuclear Maturation and Gene Expression of Immature Human Oocytes
Background: Vitrification of oocytes is a fast-freezing technique, which may affect the quality of the human oocyte, and consequently affects the embryo development, pregnancy and birth. The aim of the current study was to investigate the consequence of in-vitro vitrification on maturation status of immature human oocytes, additionally, expression levels of stress, and apoptosis related genes. ...
متن کاملExpression of uteroglobin in the human endometrium.
Uteroglobin is a progesterone binding protein, a member of the antiflammin gene family and possibly a novel cytokine. Initially, uteroglobin was identified as the major protein of rabbit uterine secretion during the phase of preimplantation. Counterparts of the rabbit uteroglobin or its gene are described in rat, mouse, hamster, hare, pig, horse and human. While uteroglobin appears as one of th...
