Alterations in expression of endometrial endothelial nitric oxide synthase and αvβ3 integrin in women with endometriosis  Omid Khorram, M.D., Ph.D., Bruce A Lessey, M.D., Ph.D.  Fertility and Sterility  Volume 78, Issue 4, Pages 860-864 (October 2002) DOI: 10.1016/S0015-0282(02)03347-2

FIGURE 1 Immunohistochemical localization of αvβ3 integrin and eNOS in the human endometrium. The left panel is a negative control from a patient without endometriosis (top) and a patient with endometriosis (bottom). The middle panel shows αvβ3 integrin staining pattern in a fertile control (top) and a patient with endometriosis (bottom). The right panel shows endothelial nitric oxide synthase staining in a fertile control (top) and a patient with endometriosis (bottom). Both proteins were predominantly localized in the glandular and luminal epithelium. The patient with endometriosis showed more intense eNOS staining and less αvβ3 integrin staining compared with the fertile control. Khorram. Expression of eNOS and αvβ3 integrin in endometriosis.

COX2 = cyclooxygenase-2; eNOS = endothelial nitric oxide synthase; IL = interleukin; PGE2 = prostaglandin E2; RANTES = regulated upon activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted. Khorram.
