Estrogen does not further increase lesion marker gene expression 24 or 48 hours after endometriosis disease initiation. (A) Gene expression of immune cell markers for neutrophils (S100A8), macrophages (F4/80), and granulocytes (G-CSFR) from WT to WT lesions at 24 and 48 hours after endometriosis-like disease initiation. Lesions are compared with minced uterine tissue (set to 1). (B) Gene expression from angiogenic factors (Timp1 and Vegfa) from WT to WT lesions at 24 and 48 hours after endometriosis-like disease initiation. Lesions were removed, RNA was isolated, and gene expression was determined by RT-PCR. Means not sharing a letter are significantly different from each other (P < 0.05). Means sharing a same single letter or a letter in combination with other letters are not significantly different from each other (P > 0.05; one-way ANOVA). Error bars represent standard error of the mean; n = 8 to 11.
