No significant change in myometrial blood vessels in response to VEGF-D over-expression. Uterine horns of NOD SCID mice were inoculated with control or VEGF-D expressing 293EBNA cells. The density of myometrial blood vessels (C) did not vary between mice treated with VEGF-expressing cells relative to control cells. There was also no significant difference in the percentage of myometrial blood vessels (B) that contained proliferating cells or the surface area of myometrial blood vessels (C) in mice with VEGF-D expressing tumors relative to control tumours. Black bars: control cells; White bars: VEGF-D cells. Data are illustrated as means ± SEM (n = 7-9).
