    Unité INSERM 377, Lille, France.

    In the human uterine endocervix, five out of the six human mucin genes investigated (MUC 2, MUC 3, MUC 4, MUC 5AC, MUC 5B and MUC 6) are expressed, whereas in some other mucosae the hybridization pattern demonstrates the expression of only two or three of these genes. The most intense labelling by in-situ hybridization is obtained significantly with MUC 4, predominantly during the luteal phase. The expression of the MUC 4 gene appears to be influenced by the oestro-progesterone ratio. During the ovulatory cycle, there are only a few differences concerning the variations of expression of all other MUC genes.
