* Mice received 2.5 IU of eCG followed by 2.5 IU hCG 48 h later and were individually caged with stud males to induce mating. The next morning, a mouse with a visible vaginal plug was designated to be on day 1 of pregnancy. Mice were sacrificed at 11 AM on day 4. One uterine horn from each mouse was flushed and the other horn was subjected to histological analysis
