It has been thought to exert a progesterone effect on the human endometrium without estrogenic priming, although it has been uncertain whether all components of the endometrium reacted similarly to this compound.' Revision of our current thinking regarding endocrine metabolism during the menstrual cycle might … Show more

“…Lipids were extracted from membrane fractions and washed according to Folch et al (22). Lipid-P was determined by the procedure of Rouser et al (23), and total sterols were determined as described by Stadtman (24 with lead citrate or with PACP, which preferentially stains plasma membranes of plants (18,(27)(28)(29).…”
