(A). Quantitive RT-PCR of ECM components. *P<0.05 vs mOSE cells. (B). Quantitive RT-PCR of integrins. *P<0.05 vs Non-TICs. (C). IHC staining of collagen IV in mouse ovary and uterus. (Brown, collagen IV. Blue, nuclei). a. mouse ovary. b–c, the enlarged images of two areas (b) and (c) in a. d. uterus. (D). Images of mCherry-OTICs that attached to the surface coated with bovine serum albumin (BSA), human ovarian surface epithelial cell-derived extracellular matrix (hOSE ECM), human ovarian stromal cell-derived extracellular matrix (hOST ECM), and collagen IV (Col IV). (E). Quantification of attached mCherry-OTICs in adhesion assay. *P<0.05 vs hOSE ECM group.
