Electrophoretic analyses of secreted human endometrial proteins: identification and characterization of luteal phase
Endometrial protein synthesis and secretion throughout the menstrual cycle was studied by slab gel electrophoretic analysis of [35S]methionine incorporation into protein during short term culture of human endometrial tissue. A minimum of five protein bands that fluctuate during the menstrual cycle were identified on one-dimensional gels. Those with mol wt of 28K, 35K, 51K, and 59K decreased in the luteal phase, whereas a broad 25K band was induced in the luteal phase. This broad band was identified as two species of glycosylated PRL by antihuman PRL immunostaining and [3H]glucosamine incorporation.
