Abstract:This study investigated the effects of progesterone receptors A (PRA) and B (PRB) on proliferation, migration, invasion, anchorage-independent growth (AIG), and apoptosis of FE25 cells, a precancer p53- and retinoblastoma-defective human fallopian tube epithelial cell line. We observed that the transfection of PRA (FE25-PRA) or PRB (FE25-PRB) into FE25 cells significantly increased the expression of PRA or PRB at both RNA and protein levels without affecting cell morphology. The FE25-PRA cells exhibited slower… Show more
