Haggar Harduf, M.Sc., Shlomit Goldman, D.Sc., Eliezer Shalev, M.D.  Fertility and Sterility  Volume 87, Issue 6, Pages (June 2007) DOI: /j.fertnstert Copyright © 2007 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions

2 FIGURE 1 Attachment and growth of JAR spheroids in HEC-1A versus RL95-2 cells. (A) Representative photos of JAR spheroids cultured on a layer of HEC-1A and RL95-2 cells, after 3 days of incubation. Photos were captured by phase-contrast microscope at original magnification ×1,000 (B) Bar graph describes mean ± SEM of percent attachment after 24 hours of incubation of JAR spheroids to monolayer-cultured HEC-1A cells and to monolayer-cultured RL95-2 cells.

JAR spheroids were labeled with membrane-permeable fluorescent dye CMFDA; photos were captured by fluorescence microscope, after 1 day of incubation, at original magnification ×1,000. (B) Graph represents mean ± SEM of spheroid diameter in HEC-1A (green), RL95-2 (blue), and HEC-1A-2 (azure). Harduf. Plexin-B1 in endometrial adhesiveness. Fertil Steril 2007.
