Amphiregulin is an implantation-specific and progesterone-regulated gene in the mouse uterus.
TL;DR: The cloned murine amphiregulin gene, a newly discovered member of the epidermal growth factor family, is cloned and demonstrated that its expression is implantation-specific and P4-regulated in the mouse uterus, a first report of a P 4-regulated uterine epithelial cell growth factor that is associated with epithel cell differentiation during implantation.
Differential regulation of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor in the adult ovariectomized mouse uterus by progesterone and estrogen
TL;DR: It is established that in the adult ovariectomized mouse uterus, E2 regulates HB-EGF expression in the epithelium, whereas expression of HB- EGF in the stroma is regulated by P4 and E2.

Embryonic signals direct the formation of tight junctional permeability barrier in the decidualizing stroma during embryo implantation.
TL;DR: It is suggested that trophoblast-induced expression of tight junctions forms a temporary barrier in cells of the primary decidual zone that restricts the passage of injurious stimuli such as maternal immunoglobulins to the embryo.
Synergistic effects of steroids with FSH on folliculogenesis, steroidogenesis and FSH- and hCG-receptors in hypophysectomized mice

TL;DR: It is indicated that in mice oestradiol stimulates the growth of preantral and antral follicles and delays follicular atresia; oestrogens and androgens act synergistically with FSH to enhance follicular proliferation and differentiation, and prevent follicles from undergoing atResia.
Prostaglandin E2 is a product of induced prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 and microsomal-type prostaglandin E synthase at the implantation site of the hamster.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that as blastocyst implantation proceeds, a reduction in Ptgs1 expression from uterine luminal epithelial cells and a gradual induction in PtGS2 expression exclusively in luminals epithelial and adjacent decidual cells occurred at implantation sites of hamsters.
