Increased Adhesiveness in Cultured Endometrial-Derived Cells Is Related to the Absence of Moesin Expression1
1 Nov 2000
Abstract excerpt
Human endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) are nonadhesive for embryos throughout most of the menstrual cycle. During the so-called implantation window, the apical plasma membrane of EECs acquire adhesive properties by undergoing a series of morphological and biochemical changes. The human endometrial-derived epithelial cell line, RL95-2, serves as an in vitro model for receptive uterine epithelium because of its...
