Schematic of induction of endometriosis and surgical procedures in non-human primates (baboon). Gray arrows indicate the time points of i.p. inoculation using autlogous menstrual tissue. Black arrows indicate laparoscopy and endometriectomy surgical time points and peripheral blood collection during the window of receptivity d9-11PO (post-ovulatory). White arrows indicate operational procedure (sham or excisional) time points. All animals were euthanized at 15 months following disease induction.
