Pregnant rats were injected with 3H RU38486 into the uterine cavity on day 2, 4, 5 and 8 of pregnancy. Before implantation, the saturable RU binding increased significantly (day 2 vs. 4; 30.0 +/- 2.3 vs. 640.0 +/- 17.9 dpm/g, p less than 0.001). After implantation, the binding became higher at the nidation site (implantation vs. non-implantation site; 1156.1 +/- 237.1 vs. 595.0 +/- 24.3, p less...

Ultrastructure of the superficial relief of the endometrial epithelium was investigated under the scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopes (TEM) in a group of patients after the hormonal stimulation, performed in the program of in vitro fertilization and embryotransfer. The results were compared with those obtained in a group of patients studied during the secretory phase of normal ...

save and except the few chapters dealing with the basic principles the book has been thoroughly rewritten. It contains all modern elements characterizing the practice of obstetrics as taught by the London school. We select the following for special praise:? In part I the latest work on the theories of sex determination and the nidation of the ovum have been very clearly described. In part II th...

BACKGROUND Nidation of floating tumour cells initiates peritoneal carcinosis and limits prognosis of gastro-intestinal tumours. Adhesion of tumour cells to extracellular matrix components is a pivotal step in developing peritoneal dissemination of intraabdominal malignancies. Since phospholipids efficaciously prevented peritoneal adhesion formation in numerous animal studies we investigated the...
