Developmental regulation of steroidogenic enzyme gene expression in the periimplantation porcine conceptus: a paracrine role for insulin-like growth factor-I.
1 Sept 1995
Abstract excerpt
During periimplantation, the estrogen biosynthetic capability of the porcine conceptus is transient, coincident with morphological development (trophoblast elongation), and temporally associated with maximal uterine release of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) into the luminal fluid. We investigated the possible linkages of conceptus steroidogenesis and IGF-I by characterizing the developmental expression of...
