Lysyl Oxidase Activity in the Mouse Uterine Cervix Is Physiologically Regulated by Estrogen

·doi:10.1210/endo-109-2-618

Lysyl oxidase activity in the mouse cervix was examined during the estrous cycle, pregnancy, and the postpartum period. It was highest in estrus and lowest in diestrus. On day 1 of pregnancy, the activity was comparable to that seen in estr…
