2. Figure 1
(A) A representative western blot image of endometrial tissue samples from women with dormant GTB and controls. Protein levels of LIF, LIFR, STAT3, pSTAT3, VEGF, MUC1, MECA-79, CDH1, ITGAV, and ITGB3 were measured. D = dormant GTB; C = controls. (B) Relative quantification of protein expression against β-actin in dormant GTB cases (n = 38) and controls (n = 30) is expressed as mean ± SEM band intensities. *Indicates statistical significance at P<.001 on comparing dormant GTB cases with controls.

(A) Several fully developed pinopodes covering the endometrial surface in controls; (B) poorly developed pinopodes in women with dormant GTB; (C) no/absence of pinopodes in women with dormant GTB; (D) pinopodes score of women with dormant GTB (n = 38) and controls (n = 30) during implantation window.

Effect of HSP65 on hESC decidualization. (A) Fibroblast-like stromal cells appear in the nondecidual hESCs (ND). Fibroblast-like hESCs decidualized with cAMP+MPA as evidenced by the characteristic feature of polygonal shape (DEC). Conversion of fibroblast-like hESCs into decidual cells are affected by HSP65 treatment (DEC+HSP65). Magnification ×100. (B) mRNA fold change of PRL, IGFBP1, LIF, and LIFR in decidualized hESCs (DEC) and HSP65-treated decidualized hESCs (DEC+HSP65) following adjusted to nondecidualized cells (ND). (C) STAT3 phosphorylation in HSP65-treated decidualized hESCs (DEC+HSP65) compared with untreated decidualized cells (DEC) and nondecidualized cells (ND). Data are represented as the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. *P<.05 and **P<.001.
