Oestrogen and progesterone receptors in the uterine wall of bitches with cystic endometrial hyperplasia/pyometra

Fresh samples of uterine wall and peripheral plasma were obtained from 13 bitches of different breeds when they were treated for cystic endometrial hyperplasia/pyometra by ovariohysterectomy. The plasma samples were assayed for progesterone and 17β‐oestradiol, and the tissue samples were examined hi...
