The expression of MUC1 mRNA in high response group was lower than that in the natural control (P〈0.05). Immunostaining for MUC1 protein in glandular and luminal epithelium in high response group was lower than that in the natural control (P〈0. 05). Conclusion Asynchronized pinopode appearance and lower expression of MUC1 during peri-implantation period were the characteristics of endometrium in high response group, Which may provide a clue of decreased endometrial receptivity in the supraphysiological hormone milieu.展开更多
