Mouse and human myometrium express TAS2Rs. A) Tas2R expression pattern in myometrium from d 18 pregnant mice. B) TAS2R expression in myometrium from women in third trimester of pregnancy. C) TAS2R expression in hTERT-HM cells. Quantitative PCR primers for TAS2Rs are listed in Tables 1 and 2. To visualize differences among TAS2Rs, Ct values for each TAS2R was normalized against β-actin and then against Tas2R137 in mice and TAS2R5 in humans.
