  1. Data correspond to amplification rate relative to 18S rRNA. Results are given as mean ± SEM from: 8 and 5 proliferative; 7 and 8 early; 4 and 8 mid and 4 late secretory endometria obtained from women without (normal) and with endometriosis, respectively. *p < 0.05 vs. normal endometrium; #p < 0.05 vs. early secretory phase.
