title: Glycodelins: biological activity in reproduction and differentiation.
abstract: Studies published in recent years have elucidated the role of glycodelins in early human reproduction and the biological actions of glycodelins relative to their structure. New information has also emerged on the regulation of glycodelin synthesis and on the effects of glycodelin transfection on cellular growth and the expression of other epithelial markers.
