(A) Immunostaining for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in cysts of woman from the study group: (a) stromatic cells and fibers, and (b) venous wall cells. (B) Immunostaining for VEGF in endometrium of woman from the study group: (a) stromatic cells and fibers. (C) Immunostaining for VEGF in endometrium of woman from the control group: (a) stromatic cells and fibers. (A–D: ABC/HRP method, original magnification ×200. A computerized analysis of the image was performed to quantify the expression of the target protein.) (D) Representative gels of RT-PCR for (a) VEGF and (b) glyceraldehydes phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH): specimens from cyst of a woman from the study group (1), specimens from the endometrium of a woman from the study group (2), and specimens from the control group (3).

(A) Immunostaining for angiopoietin 1 (ANGPT1) from cyst of woman from the study group: (a) stromatic fibers and (b) stromatic cells. (B) Immunostaining for ANGPT1 in endometrium of woman from the study group: (a) stromatic cells. (C) Immunostaining for ANGPT 1 in endometrium of woman from the control group: (a) stromatic cells. (A–D: ABC/HRP method, original magnification ×200. A computerized analysis of the image was performed to quantify the expression of the target protein.) (D) Representative gels of RT-PCR for (a) ANGPT 1 and (b) glyceraldehydes phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH): specimens from cyst of woman from the study group (1), from endometrium of woman from the study group (2), and from woman from control group (3).

(B) Immunostaining for MMP-1 in endometrium of woman from the study group: (a) stromatic cells and fibers, and (b) venous vessel. (C) Immunostaining for MMP-1 in endometrium of woman from the control group: (a) stromatic cells and fibers. (A–D: ABC/HRP method, original magnification ×200. A computerized analysis of the image was performed to quantify the expression of the target protein.) (D) Representative gels of RT-PCR for (a) MMP-1 and (b) glyceraldehydes phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH): specimens from cyst of woman from the study group (1), from endometrium of woman from the study group (2), and from woman from the control group (3).
