Figure 7

Localization of MMP-1 and MMP-14 mRNA in the endometrial tissues during the estrous cycle and early gestation. Seven-micrometer sections of the endometrium were hybridized with DIG labeled antisense cRNA probes of MMP-1 (A-E) and sense cRNA probes (A'-E'). A, A': before ovulation (BOV); B, B': after ovulation (AOV); C, C': middle of estrous cycle (MEC); D, D': Day 19 of gestation; E, E': Day 30 of gestation. MMP-14 mRNA antisense (F-J) and sense cRNA probes (F'-J'). F, F': BOV; G, G': AOV; H, H': MEC; I, I': Day 19; J, J': Day 30 of gestation. Abbreviations are same as Figure 2. Scale bar = 20 μm (objective; 20×).
