From: Insulinlike Growth Factor-1Ec (MGF) Expression in Eutopic and Ectopic Endometrium: Characterization of the MGF E-Peptide Actions In Vitro

Figure 2

Expression of the different IGF-1 transcripts (IGF-1 Ea, IGF-1 Eb and IGF-1 Ec [MGF]) in eutopic endometrium (EU), peritoneal red lesion (PE) and ovarian endometriotic cyst (OvE). Representative PCR gel images demonstrate the differential mRNA expression of the IGF-1 transcripts in PE and in OvE compared with EU (upper panel). In the lower panel, PCR relative quantification is presented. Values of PE and OvE were normalized to each corresponding ribosomal 18S and expressed as percentage differences (%) from EU levels (means ± SD, PE: n = 15, OvE: n = 20). *Significantly different from EU (P< 0.01).
