A single injection of hexoestrol, 45 mg., is effective in suppressing lactation. Given in this way hexoestrol causes a small rise in plasma factor IX levels, of shorter duration than that produced by a customary and equally effective oral course of stilboestrol. With hexoestrol the plasma factor IX levels reverted to normal by the sixth day of the puerperium.

Human cervical epithelial cells, growing out in confluent monolayers from small explants, develop cytoplasmic extensions from the margins of the growth, extending out and terminating on the glass substrate. The marginal fibrils are particularly frequent on the edges of cellular lamellipodia, protruding in advance of the growing edges. Marginal cells with microvilli tend to have more marginal fibrils on their leading edges than smooth more differentiated cells, and occasionally there is continuity between microvilli and marginal fibrils. Where there is cellular overlap, marginal fibrils extending over the surface of another cell can be seen; where these is an intercellular cleft, cytoplasmic bridges have the same appearance as marginal fibrils. Colchicine (10-6 M) did not affect marginal fibril formation.
