Summary: | •β-CP decreased the rate of embryo implantation.•β-CP disturbed the balance of serum E2 and P4 on day 5 of gestation.•β-CP increased ERa and PRA protein expression levels in the endometria.•β-CP decreased the expression of HoxA10 protein in the endometria.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of β-CP on embryo implantation in mice. Forty female mice were randomly assigned to four groups of 10 mice each: one control group and three β-CP treated groups. The control group was administered corn oil only, while the three β-CP-treated groups were given corn oil containing 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg bw d β-CP for 3 months through intragastric administration. The results indicated that the administration of β-CP decreased the rate of embryo implantation (all p |
