<i>TGFB1</i> mRNA expression was significantly increased in the peritoneum adjacent to endometriosis lesions compared to peritoneum distal to lesions in women with endometriosis (B).
<p>There was no signifianct difference in TGFB1 expression between women with and without endometriosis, nor was there a difference in expression between control and prone sites of peritoneum in women without endometriosis. There is no significant change in mRNA expression for <i>TGFBR1, TGFBR2</i> and <i>SMAD3</i> in all comparisons made (A, C–L). <i>n = 35 (*p<0.05).</i></p
