Fig 5. Quantification of VEGF and PDGF-AA secreted during embryo culture.

Fig 5

Soluble factors released by the developing embryos co-cultured with EV-endMSCS were quantified by the Luminex xMAP technology at the third day of embryo culture. (A) PDGF-AA secreted by blastocyst embryos. All the data were compared by Student t-test for paired comparisons with respect to control group. The mean (dotted line) ±SD from four independent experiments, as well as individual measures (rhombuses), are shown. (B) VEGF secreted by blastocyst embryos. All the data were compared by Student t-test for paired comparisons with respect to control group. The mean (dotted line) ±SD from four independent experiments, as well as individual measures (rhombuses), are shown. (C) Correlation between PDGF-AA and VEGF. Correlation line as well as individual measures (rhombuses) are represented. The Pearson correlation coefficient (r) together with its significance level (p) is shown.
