Mitochondrial progesterone receptor (PR-M) distribution in uterine leiomyoma and myometrium and impact on mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in immortilized human myometrial cells (HTERT-HM)

Abstract

A mitochondrial progesterone receptor (PR-M) increases cellular respiration and MMP. We define the distribution of PR-M in uterine fibroid and myometrial tissue and study its impact on cellular respiration in hTert-HM cells.
