Relative levels of pro-angiogenesis cytokines/receptors induced by leptin in endometrial epithelial cells (EEC)

Cell type	VEGF	VEGFR2	LIF	LIFR	IL-1	IL-1R tl
Primary EEC	n.s.	n.s.	1.5^a	3.0^a	8.5^a	1.9^a
HES	n.s.	1.6^a	n.s.	2.0^a	n.s.	1.4^a
Ishikawa	1.7^a	1.8^a	2.2^a	1.5^a	n.s.	2.0^a
SK-UT2	1.5^a	6.2^a	n.s.	n.s.	n.s.	5.0^a
An3Ca	1.4^a	1.5^a	4.9^a	7.0^a	n.s.	20^a

Note: The data represent fold differences for quantitative analysis of cytokines determined by ELISA and densitometric calculations from Western blot of cytokine receptors expressed by EEC after incubation for 24 h with leptin (62.5 nM). The Western blot data were normalized to β-actin on a fold difference from control (basal medium; n ≥ 3). (n.s.) no significant difference with respect to control

P <0.05 significant difference with respect to control.
