Abstract:
:Progesterone (P4) and progesterone receptor (PR) have important functions in uterine environment. In previous studies, using high density DNA microarray analysis, we identified low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 2 (Lrp2) is one of the genes upregulated by P4 and PR. In present studies, we examined the expression of Lrp2 through real-time PCR, in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry by P4-PR response. Lrp2 mRNA transcript was significantly increased after P4 treatment in the luminal and glandular epithelium of the wild-type mice. However, Lrp2 expression was not observed in the progesterone receptor knock out (PRKO) mice treated with P4. The expression of Lrp2 expression is not regulated by estrogen. During early pregnancy, the expression of Lrp2 was detected at 2.5 dpc and then significantly increased at 3.5 dpc in luminal and glandular epithelium. These results suggest that Lrp2 is a novel target gene by P4 and PR.
