Effect of progestin and oestrogen on the growth of immortalised epithelial cells from ovarian endometrioma. EMosis-CC/TERT1 or EMosis-CC/TERT2 cells were seeded on six-well dishes and were treated with or without MPA (A), dienogest (B) or progesterone (P4) (C) at a concentration of 10 or 100 nM for the indicated number of days. Cell growth was monitored by counting cell numbers. Data are presented as means±s.d. of three independent experiments. *P<0.05. (D) EMosis-CC/TERT1/ER cells were generated by the introduction of ERα cDNA into EMosis-CC/TERT1 cells and confirmed to have significant ERα expression (Figure 4C). EMosis-CC/TERT1/ER cells were seeded on six-well dishes and were treated with or without MPA estradiol (E2) at a concentration of 10 or 100 nM for the indicated number of days. Cell growth was monitored by counting cell numbers on day 5 after treatment. Data are presented as means±s.d. of three independent experiments. *P<0.05.
