Sex steroid hormone action on target tissues is mediated through binding of estrogen and progesterone to specific intranuclear proteins, the estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER and PR). Therefore, in the present report the authors investigated for the presence of ER and PR in lymphoid cells of endometrial stroma that may serve as potential targets for estrogen- and progesterone-mediated effects in endometrium. The presence of ER was shown in nine proliferative and ten secretory endometria and the presence of PR in three secretory and one proliferative endometria. ER and PR were localized by monoclonal antibodies, to the nuclei of cells, with the use of, respectively, peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) and avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) methods. Lymphoid cells were then delineated by decoration of their plasma membranes with the use of monoclonal antibodies to HLA-DR, leukocyte common antigen (LCA), Leu-4 (CD3), and IL-2 receptor molecules with the use of an ABC staining procedure. A group of cells in the lymphoid aggregates in endometrial stroma showing membranous staining for HLA-DR, LCA, and Leu-4 molecules had nuclear ER. IL-2 receptor-positive cells were rare in endometrium, and no PR-positive cells were found in lymphoid aggregates. Furthermore, HLA-DR and ER were expressed in the glandular and surface epithelium in the proliferative phase and in occasional glands in the basalis in the late secretory phase. The presence of an ER-positive lymphoid cell population in endometrial lymphoid aggregates suggests that these cells may serve as target cells for estrogen.
