Figure 1From: Uterine and placental expression of TRPV6 gene is regulated via progesterone receptor- or estrogen receptor-mediated pathways during pregnancy in rodentsExpression of uterine TRPV6 mRNA during pregnancy in rats. Uteri of gestating rats (n = 2) were collected daily from P0.5 to P21.5, and expression of TRPV6 mRNA was assayed by RT-PCR (Top panel, agarose gel image) and Real-Time PCR (Bottom panel, line graph). The unattached uteri containing uterine epithelial cells were used as a RNA preparation from P1.3.5. The line graph shows the analysis of Real-Time PCR data expressed as a percentage of TRPV6/HPRT1 (mean ± SEM of duplicates).Back to article page
