Normal human endometrium in cell culture. II. A microspectrophotometric study of polyploid nuclei in short-term primary epithelial cultures

D Kirk et al. In Vitro. 1979 May.

Abstract

The growth of short-term primary cultures of endometrial epithelium has been studied using Feulgen microspectrophotometry. A gradual increase in the number of polyploid nuclei up to 64C has been observed and is associated with a decline in the growth capacity of the cultures. The specific mechanism(s) of this polyploidization is not known.
