Abstract
Primary cultures of human endometrial cells were used to examine the direct effects of estrogens on progesterone receptor levels in vitro. Cells, grown in Dulbecco's EMEM, showed maximal stimulation of progesterone receptor (PR, 7-fold) after a 3-4 d incubation with 10nM estradiol (E(,2)). The
