In rat uterine epithelium, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and fibronectin (FN) display changes in temporal expression during implantation. PDGF was expressed in the apical epithelium on Day 3, apically, laterally and basally at the time of implantation on Day 6 but was not expressed on Day 7.
Multiple factors contribute to the growth retardation which is a characteristic feature of uncontrolled diabetes. In this report we have examined the effects of streptozotocin-induced (STZ) diabetes on expression of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-
