1 Protein profiling of human endometrial tissues in the midsecretory and proliferative phases of the menstrual cycle  Tanu Parmar, M.S., Sushama Gadkar-Sable, M.S., Lalita Savardekar, M.B.B.S., Rajendra Katkam, Ph.D., Shalmali Dharma, Ph.D., Pervin Meherji, M.D., Chander Parkash Puri, Ph.D., Geetanjali Sachdeva, Ph.D.  Fertility and Sterility  Volume 92, Issue 3, Pages (September 2009) DOI: /j.fertnstert Copyright © 2009 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Two-dimensional maps of endometrial proteins from (A, C) proliferative phase and (B, D) midsecretory phase, resolved either in nonlinear pH range of 3.0–11.0 (A, B), or in linear range of 4.0–7.0 (C, D) by isoelectric focusing in the first dimension and 10% SDS-PAGE in the second dimension. Arrows indicate some of the polypeptide spots displaying differential expression between two phases.

3 Figure 2 (A) Some polypeptide spots (circled) displaying higher representation either in the two-dimensional map of (a) proliferative phase or (b) midsecretory phase endometria were excised from the gels and subjected to MALDI-TOF-TOF analysis. (B) Isoforms of AAT in (a) proliferative and (b) midsecretory phase endometrium. Arrow indicates the location of polypeptide spot VG excised from 2D protein gels.

4 Figure 3 Immunohistochemical localization of calreticulin (a, b, c) and α1-antitrypsin precursor AAT (d, e, f) in proliferative (a, d) and midsecretory (b, e) phases. Respective negative controls are shown in c and f.

5 Figure 4 Semiquantitative comparison of (A) calreticulin and (B) α1-antitrypsin immunostaining in glandular and stromal compartments of proliferative and midsecretory phase endometria. ∗Indicates statistical significance of the difference between two groups.

6 Figure 5 Flow cytometric analysis demonstrating change in the percentage of Ishikawa cells expressing calreticulin or α1-antitrypsin precursor after stimulation with estrogen or progesterone.

7 Figure 6 Comparison of two-dimensional protein profiles of (A) endometrial tissue and (B) uterine fluid during the midsecretory phase of the cycle. Arrows indicate the matched polypeptide spots. VG: α1-antitrypsin precursor, GT4: heat-shock protein 27, and VS: transferrin.
