Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) ·doi:10.1177/1933719110385132

Fallopian tube (FT) and endometrial urocortin 1 (Ucn1) and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH)-receptor (CRH-R1/CRH-R2) expression were examined using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry in n…

The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jc.2009-1476

ContextSex steroid hormone receptor (SHR) dynamics are well-documented in human endometrium but have not been comprehensively studied in Fallopian tube (FT).ObjectiveThe aim of the study was to compare expression patterns and hormonal regul…

CB1 expression is attenuated in Fallopian tube and decidua of women with ectopic pregnancy.
PloS one ·doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0003969

BackgroundEmbryo retention in the Fallopian tube (FT) is thought to lead to ectopic pregnancy (EP), a considerable cause of morbidity. In mice, genetic/pharmacological silencing of cannabinoid receptor Cnr1, encoding CB1, causes retention o…
