Continuous oestrogen stimulation produced an initial increase in mitosis and [³H]thymidine incorporation in the mouse uterine luminal epithelium on days 2 and 3 of treatment, but activity fell to the level of the untreated uterus on days 4 and 5. The implications of this control of cell division are discussed. A second wave of activity occurred about a week later, and in the longest experiment a third wave was seen on days 19 to 21. This pattern was similar to that seen in the glandular epithelium. There was little cell division in the stroma or myometrium. The rhythm was not due to diurnal variation. It was seen after treatment with oestrone and oestradiol, given either by injection or in the drinking water.
