1 Expression of the α2β1 and α3β1 integrins at the surface of mesothelial cells: a potential attachment site of endometrial cells  Craig A Witz, M.D., Akiyuki Takahashi, M.D., Iris A Montoya-Rodriguez, B.S., Sook Cho, M.D., Ph.D., Robert S Schenken, M.D.  Fertility and Sterility  Volume 74, Issue 3, Pages (September 2000) DOI: /S (00)

2 Figure 1 Peritoneum biopsy showing the distribution of the α2β1 integrin in mesothelium. M = mesothelial cells. Arrowheads illustrate expression on the basal plasma membrane. Arrows illustrate expression at the cell surface. (CLSM, original magnification, ×750; bar = 10 μm). Witz. Mesothelium α2β1 and α3β1 integrin expression. Fertil Steril 2000. Fertility and Sterility  , DOI: ( /S (00) )

3 Figure 2 Peritoneum biopsy showing the distribution of the α3 integrin subunit in mesothelium. Expression of the α3 integrin is seen at the base and surface of the cell. Diffuse labeling is seen throughout the cytoplasm. (CLSM, original magnification, ×450; bar = 10 μm). Witz. Mesothelium α2β1 and α3β1 integrin expression. Fertil Steril 2000.

4 Figure 3 Distribution of the α2β1 integrin subunit in a mesothelial cell grown on Aclar film. There is decreased expression at the base of the cell (arrowheads) and stronger expression at the cell surface (arrows). (TPLSM, original magnification, ×1,050; bar = 5 μm). Witz. Mesothelium α2β1 and α3β1 integrin expression. Fertil Steril 2000. Fertility and Sterility  , DOI: ( /S (00) )
