Figure 1 (A), RT-PCR oviductin product. The 410-bp oviductin band (a). The Sac 1 restriction digest of the oviductin RT-PCR product showing two bands, 235 bp and 174 bp; mw, 50-bp ladder molecular weight marker (b). (B), RT-PCR products for the control gene β-actin (543 bp) and for oviductin (410 bp). mRNA from oviductal cells obtained during the early follicular phase with low circulating concentrations of E2, LH, and P (a). mRNA from oviductal cells obtained during the late follicular phase with high circulating concentrations of E2 and LH and low concentration of P (b). mRNA from oviductal cells obtained during the luteal phase with low circulating concentrations of E2 and LH and high concentrations of P (c).
