Definition: Given a passage, construct a question on the basis of the information present in the passage. Construct the question in such a way that (i) it is unambiguous, (ii) it is answerable from the passage, (iii) its answer is unique (iv) it answer uses text phrases from the passage. Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.
Input: To determine the role of P and its nuclear receptor PR in the growth of ectopic uterine tissue of mice with or without a disrupted PR gene.', 'Animal study.', 'Academic medical center.', 'Female wild-type (WT) and transgenic knockout mice for P receptor (PRKO).', 'Endometriosis was induced in the following groups of ovariectomized adult mice: [1] untreated WT, [2] estradiol (E(2))-treated WT, [3] P-treated WT, [4] E(2) + P-treated WT, [5] untreated PRKO, [6] E(2)-treated PRKO, and [7] E(2) + P-treated PRKO (n = 5 in each group).', 'The size of ectopic uterine tissue in WT and PRKO mice were compared between the groups subjected to treatments with P or E(2). Tissue proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) levels were compared among these groups.', 'Treatment with P only significantly decreased the size of WT ectopic uterine tissue. The untreated PRKO ectopic uterine tissue was significantly larger than WT tissue. Estradiol increased the size of ectopic uterine tissues, and this E(2)-dependent growth could be suppressed by P in WT tissues but not in PRKO tissues. Finally, the hormone-dependent changes in ectopic uterine tissue size were accompanied by comparable alterations in PCNA levels.
Output:
Are intact progesterone receptors essential to counteract the proliferative effect of estradiol in a genetically engineered mouse model of endometriosis?
