Abstract
There is a paucity of data concerning the factors involved in the growth of uterine leiomyomata. The expression of mRNAs encoding EGF and the EGF receptor in myometrial and leiomyoma cultures suggest that EGF may be involved in the autocrine/paracrine regulation of human uterine leiomyomata and myometrial growth.
