title: In vivo production of the nucleolar channel system in post menopausal endometrium.
abstract: Endometrial biopsies from seven postmenopausal women on hormone replacement therapy have been examined for the presence of the unique nuclear structure, the nucleolar channel system. Its identification in five of the patients has demonstrated that the nucleolar channel system can be produced by an appropriate oestrogen and progestagen treatment and is not otherwise dependent on ovulation.
