Abstract: | Summary Ectopic pituitary transplantation induced a high incidence of adenomyosis in SHN mice. Early signs of the development of adenomyosis were the penetration of stromal connective tissue into myometrium followed by uterine gland invasion. Associated with these changes, the inner layer of myometrium showed the involution of smooth muscle cells and distended intercellular spacesThis work was supported in part by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research from the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture of Japan |
