FIGURE 1 The relative mRNA expression of VEGF and its receptors in the oviduct mucosal cells after culture with various concentrations of hCG (range: 0–100 ng/mL). (A) VEGF, (B) flt-1, and (C) KDR. Values shown numerically are means, and error bars indicate SEM. #Significant differences between the treatment groups (gray bars) and the control group (white bars), P<.05.
