Abstract: Objective To investigate the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in the granulated metrial gland(GMG) cells.Methods Metrial glands were taken from pregnant Kunming mice at 13~15th gravid day.GMG cells were got and purified by tissue culture.Expression of VEGF in the GMG cells was shown with immunohistochemical staining and Western blot.Results GMG cells migrated from the tissue culture blots and grew well.Expression of VEGF was shown in these cells by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot.Moreover VEGF was also shown in GMG cells culture medium.Conclusion The GMG cells can express and excrete VEGF.

Key words: GMG cells, VEGF
