The polymorphic epithelial mucin MUC1 in human endometrium is regulated with maximal expression in the implantation phase
Abstract
After ovulation, progesterone stimulates a temporally regulated secretory transformation in human endometrial epithelium. Using a combination of immunohistochemistry, and Western and Northern blotting, we demonstrate that 1) the polymorphic epithelial mucin MUC1 is secreted by human endometrial epithelium; 2) low levels of both mRNA and core protein are present in the preovulatory phase of the menstrual cycle; 3) mRNA levels increase several-fold after ovulation, consistent with transcriptional regulation by progesterone; 4) there is an increase in translation product in postovulatory endometrium; and 5) the tandem repeat domain of the MUC-1 polypeptide is glycosylated in endometrium.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
