  1. Percentage of ovarian transplants showing functional blood vessels (dextran/FITC positive), mature functional blood vessels (double staining dextran/FITC and α-SMA positive) and murine blood vessels (CD31 positive) 3 days after transplantation in the VEGF165 treated group and control group.
  2. Significance was established at a p value < 0.05.
