MD, FACOGAuthor Information From the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, State University of New York, Upstate Medical Center, Syracuse Obstetrics & Gynecology: August 1969 - Volume 34 - Issue 2 - p 252-259 Free Abstract Addition of progesterone to the medium of successful cultures of human endometrium evoked tissue changes that did not occur in endometrial explants of control cultures. The anticipated secretory differentiative alterations of the progesterone-stimulated explants took place irrespective of the cycle day of origin of the endometrium, and were associated with augmented alkaline phosphatase activity of the glandular cells. © 1969 The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists
