1 Putative stem cell activity of human endometrial epithelial and stromal cells during the menstrual cycle  Kjiana Elkje Schwab, B.Biomed.Sci. (Hons.), Rachel Wah Shan Chan, B.Sci.

2 FIGURE 1 Cloning efficiency of human endometrial epithelial (A) and stromal (B) cells from proliferative, secretory, and inactive endometrium cultured in serum-containing medium. Each bar consists of the cloning efficiency for small (solid bars) and large (white bars) colonies, which together represent the total cloning efficiency observed. Results shown are means ± SEM for the number of samples shown below the bars. Not all samples were examined for both cell types in serum-containing medium. Schwab.

3 FIGURE 2 Cloning efficiency of human endometrial epithelial cells for proliferative, secretory, and inactive endometrium cultured in serum-free medium on feeder layers in the presence of individual growth factors. The dashed line represents the total basal cloning efficiency (n = 7) for epithelial cells cultured on feeder layer in the absence of any growth factor. Results shown are means ± SEM for proliferative (n = 5–7), secretory (n = 5–6), and inactive (n = 2–4) endometrium. Not all growth factors were assessed for each sample. *Statistical significance between the three endometrial groups for small colonies; P<.05. Schwab. Endometrial stem cells and menstrual cycle.

4 FIGURE 3 Cloning efficiency of human endometrial stromal cells for proliferative, secretory, and inactive endometrium cultured in SFM in the presence of individual growth factors. Only those growth factors that supported stromal cell clonogenicity are shown. Results shown are means ± SEM for proliferative (n = 5), secretory (n = 5–7), and inactive (n = 3–4) endometrium. Not all growth factors were assessed for each sample. Statistical significance between the three endometrial groups for total clonogenicity (†P<.01), large colonies (**P<.05; ‡P<.01), and small colonies (*P<.05). Schwab.
