Article Title: Expression of Lysyl Oxidase Family Enzymes During Human Endometrial Decidualization
doi: 10.1101/2025.05.28.656636
Figure Lengend Snippet: A. Gene expression of LOX and LOXL1-4 in the human endometrial stromal cells decidualized in vitro . Primary human endometrial stromal cells were cultured in vitro until they reached full confluence. After that, the decidualization was induced with medium containing a hormonal cocktail: 10nM E, 1μM P, and 0.5mM 8-bromo-cAMP for 6 days. The cell lysates were collected at 0, 2, 4 and 6 days to extract total RNA for gene expression analysis. The gene expression was normalized to RPLPO and compared with day 0 samples (n=4/group, *p<0.05). B . Western blot analysis of LOX and LOXL1-3 protein levels in cell lysates collected at 0, 2, 4 and 6 days. GAPDH was used as a loading control. These are representative images from three to four independent replicates. C . Quantification of protein levels of LOX and LOXL1-3 is shown in histogram (n=3/group, *p<0.05).
