Therapeutic Effects of VEGF Gene-Transfected BMSCs Transplantation on Thin Endometrium in the Rat Model

Figure 1

The morphology observation of the endometrium with HE staining (the first line were ×40; the second line were ×200). (A-1,2): control group, (B-1,2): BMSC group, (C-1,2): VEGF-BMSC group, (D-1,2): sham operation group. The bar chart represented the endometrial thickness of groups. The endometrial layer of the VEGF-BMSC group showed a relatively intact structure, with more endometrial glands, capillaries and increased endometrial thickness. The endometrium of the control group was totally damaged, showing extensive coagulation necrosis, cell apoptosis. The VEGF-BMSC group had an obvious thicker endometrial lining compared with that of the control group and the BMSC group, and there was no significant difference between the VEGF-BMSC group and the sham operation group.
