At implantation, trophectoderm attaches to the apical uterine luminal epithelial cell surface. Molecular anatomy studies in humans and mice, and data from experimental models have identified several adhesion molecules that could take part in this process: integrins of the alpha v family, trophinin, CD44, cad-11, the H type I and Lewis y oligosaccharides and heparan sulfate. The endometrial cell surface mucin MUC1...
