From: Hormone-regulated expression and distribution of versican in mouse uterine tissues
Relative mRNA expression of versican in the mouse uterus. The mRNA expression was analyzed by real-time PCR using primers common to all splice variants, and relative gene expression determined by designating estrus to 1. (A) versican mRNA in estrus and diestrus; (B) versican mRNA after ovariectomy and hormone replacement. Values represent the mean + SE of determinations on three independent tissue preparations. # p < 0.05 vs. estrus by Student t-test; *p < 0.05 vs. ovx and E2; ** p < 0.001 vs. all by ANOVA.
