hUMSCs Restore Uterine Function by Inhibiting Endometrial Fibrosis via Regulation of the MMP-9/TIMP-1 Ratio in CDDP-Induced Injury Rats

Figure 2

Changes of ER, PR, and receptivity in endometrium. (a) Immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the expressions of ER and PR in uterine tissues of each group (200×). (b) Intensities of ER and PR staining within each group as quantified using ImageJ. (c) Representative examples of HOXA10 staining within uterine tissue in each group (200x). (d) Intensities of HOXA10 staining within each group as quantified were using ImageJ. (e) Pinopodes as observed with use of scanning electron microscopy (1.00KX, 3.00KX). (f) Fertility rates of rats in each group. (g) Summary of total numbers of endometrial pinopodes per field. (h) Summary of the average number of litter sizes in each group. Data are presented as the . . CDDP: cisplatin; ER: estrogen receptor; PR: progesterone receptor; HOXA10: homolobox A10.
