1 Progesterone receptor expression declines in the guinea pig uterus during functional progesterone withdrawal and in response to prostaglandins. Progesterone LOW QUALITY PROTEIN: progesterone receptor Cavia porcellus
2 One possibility suggested by uterine tissue analyses and cell culture models is that progesterone receptor levels change at term decreasing the progesterone responsiveness of the myometrium, which causes progesterone withdrawal at the functional level and results in estrogen dominance enhancing uterine contractility. Progesterone LOW QUALITY PROTEIN: progesterone receptor Cavia porcellus
3 We have also determined whether prostaglandins that induce labor cause functional progesterone withdrawal by altering myometrial progesterone receptor expression. Progesterone LOW QUALITY PROTEIN: progesterone receptor Cavia porcellus
