Abstract / Zusammenfassung

This chapter describes methods used to investigate implantation in the common marmoset monkey, Callithrix jacchus. A reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction-strategy with which to detect transcripts for steroid receptors and enzymes involved in estradiol biosynthesis is described, and an immunohistochemistry approach for detecting proteins within the implantation site is presented.
