Intact epithelial glands and stromal cells were isolated from normal proliferative and secretory endometrial specimens by digesting the tissue fragments with 0.1% collagenase solution. These components were identified by the structure of the glands and the distinct morphology of the cell cultures. The same morphological characteristics and estradiol dehydrogenase (E2DH) activity were maintained from generation to generation in the primary cell cultures derived from either glands or stroma. The generation time of cultured stromal cells was shorter than that of glandular epithelial cells. The growth rate of both cell cultures was accelerated by addition of estradiol (E2) and medroxyprogesterone acetate in culture medium. Metabolism of E2 was studied in the freshly isolated glands and stromal cells by incubating these components, with radioactive E2 or estrone (E1) at various concentrations and time intervals. Qualitative and quantitative variations in the metabolic pattern of E2 were distinguished in epithe...
