TAZ expression levels did not show a statistically significant change in the uterus during the estrous cycle. However, immunofluorescence revealed that TAZ nuclear localization significantly increased at the estrus stage. In the OVX mouse uterus, the expression levels of TAZ mRNA and protein dramatically increased in a time-dependent manner after estrogen treatment. Also, immunofluorescence showed that the nuclear TAZ expression increased at 6 h and 12 h after estrogen treatment compared to the oil treated OVX mouse uterus (0 h). Finally, pretreatment of an estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist ICI 182,780 efficiently reduced estrogen-induced TAZ expression.
