The hormonal regulation of uteroglobin gene expression
Abstract
Uteroglobin is a small progesterone-binding protein expressed in various organs of the rabbit and other rodents. In the endometrium, the expression of this gene is regulated by progesterone and estrogen whereas in the lung uteroglobin gene expression is regulated only by glucocorticoids. The hormonal regulation of uteroglobin gene expression is therefore a useful system for the study of the differential hormonal regulation of a mammalian gene in differentiated tissues.
