In 37 women being operated on gynecologically small portions of mesenchymatic tissue have been sampled and analysed with respect to the presence and concentration of estrogen and progesterone receptors within the cytosol fraction. The proofs were taken from: ligamentum cardinale, ligamentum sacrouterinum, pubo-vesico-cervical fascia, paracolpium, ligamentum teres uteri, levator muscle and serving as a comparison tissue from fornix vaginae posterior. In the proofs of pubo-vesico-cervical fascia and paracolpium there were no progesterone receptors. In all the other tissues there were as a matter of principle estrogen and progesterone receptors. However from sample to sample there were wide differences with reference to the existence and the concentration of hormone receptors. There was no correlation to the age of life. The results are discussed and compared with those to be found in literature.

D011960 Receptors, Estrogen Cytoplasmic proteins that bind estrogens and migrate to the nucleus where they regulate DNA transcription. Evaluation of the state of estrogen receptors in breast cancer patients has become clinically important.

D011980 Receptors, Progesterone Specific proteins found in or on cells of progesterone target tissues that specifically combine with progesterone. The cytosol progesterone-receptor complex then associates with the nucleic acids to initiate protein synthesis. There are two kinds of progesterone receptors, A and B. Both are induced by estrogen and have short half-lives.
