Objective: Surviving a novel anti-apoptotic gene is expressed during fetal development and in numerous human cancers.
Material and methods: We analyzed the expression of surviving in human normal endometrium: proliferative n = 8, secretive n = 4 cases and hyperplastic endometrium 6 cases.
Results: RT-PCR revealed surviving expression in all cases of normal and hyperplastic endometrium. The highest expression of surviving gene was observed in hyperplastic endometrium and in the late proliferative phase.
