Estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PgR) were studied immunohistochemically using specific antireceptor monoclonal antibodies in uterine tissue samples from 33 women in various stages of the menstrual cycle. Immunohistochemical localization was quantified as to intensity of staining and tissue distribution in glandular epithelium, stroma, and myometrium, and the results were compared with those of standard ligand binding assays. In all samples ER and PgR localized within the nuclei of target cells. The maximal concentrations of ER and PgR occurred in the mid- to late proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle. ER content declined throughout the secretory phase. In contrast, PgR content underwent unexpectedly complex and dyssynchronous fluctuations during the secretory phase of the menstrual cycle. Specifically, the glandular epithelium had diminished PgR content, while the stroma and myometrium maintained a significant PgR content. PgR and perhaps ER are not concordant in different cell types within the uterus. Segregation of function through alteration of receptor content may be an important mechanism in steroiddependent growth and differentiation of target tissues
