2. FIGURE 1
Effect of leptin on PRL secretion by cultured rat endometrial stromal cells (A) in response to treatment with different doses of leptin for 24 hours, (B) in response to 1 ng/mL leptin for different lengths of time. Leptin significantly increased PRL secretion in a dose- and a time-dependent manner (repeated measures ANOVA on log transformed data, P<.0001). Prolactin secretion also increased with duration of culture even in the absence of leptin stimulation (repeated measures ANOVA on log transformed data. P<.05). Dunnett’s post-test was used to compare each dose or time point with the control (i.e., medium only or time 0 hours). *P<.05, **P<.01.

3. FIGURE 2
Effect of leptin on insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) secretion by cultured rat endometrial stromal cells (A) in response to treatment with different doses of leptin for 24 hours, (B) in response to 1 ng/mL leptin for different lengths of time. Leptin did not significantly affect IGF-I secretion, but the IGF-I levels increased with duration of culture (repeated measures ANOVA on log transformed data, P<.05). Dunnett’s post-test was used to compare each time point with the control (i.e., time 0 hours). *P<.05.
