miR-218-5p was overexpressed in myometrium close to the endometrium of CEu. Immunofluorescent analysis of miR-218-5p (Red) and SMA(Green) in the (A) control eutopic endometrium (CEu), (B) adenomyosis eutopic endometrium(AEu) and (C) adenomyosis ectopic endometrium(AEc) respectively. EmL: endometrial layer, *means myometrium, DAPI staining was included to visualize the cell nucleus (Blue), Scale bar = 100 μm. D Statistic analysis of Immunofluorescent staining of miR-218-5p in the myometrium of CEu (n = 17), AEu (n = 16) and AEc (n = 16). P-values were determined by Student’s t-test, ***p < 0.001. E Immunofluorescent analysis of miR-218-5p (Red) in the control endometrium tissue. F Immunofluorescent analysis of miR-218-5p (Red), VEGF (Green) and SMA (Green) in the control endometrium tissue. DAPI staining was included to visualize the cell nucleus (Blue), Scale bar = 50 μm
