Endometriosis: Normal endometrial stromal cells and endometriotic stromal cells. Homo sapiens

Gene expression profiling of primary stromal cell cultures isolated from human endometrium and ovarian endometriosis. Samples are derived from the endometrium of 6 healthy patients and the endometriomas of 6 diseased patients. The results indicate the gene expression differences between these two cell populations. Overall design: Stromal cells were obtained from human normal endometrial tissues and ovarian endometriomas. The tissues were digested enzymatically, and pure stromal cell populations were established.
