Figure 2

Integrin α ν mRNA and protein of uterine leiomyoma (n = 10), which were normalized to GAPDH and normal uterine tissues, showed a descending slope and approached a low constant level as the tumor size increased (mRNA = 0.39 ± 0.06 and protein = 0.47 ± 0.08). The experiments were performed in duplicate. The surface topology of uterine leiomyomas revealed a relatively smoother contour correlated with their gross morphology than normal tissues (inset pictures).
