twoライゲーションの間に子宮角の一部を切り取って滅菌ガラスシャーレコンタの組織を置くining〜ペニシリン(100 U / ml)およびストレプトマイシン(100μg/ ml)を含むPBS100μLを。最後に絹縫合糸の両端をカット。縫合糸が緩んで来るか、出血がある場合は、切り株を見つけると、別の結び目を作る。
図1マウスのautologus子宮組織の転送による子宮内膜症の外科的誘導。左子宮角は、結紮切除し、そして子宮内膜を露出させる縦方向に開かれます。 3つの2 MM 2生検が用意され、それぞれが腸mesenteの動脈カスケードの動脈に縫合されRY。一ヶ月後の誘導により、子宮内膜症の病変は、流体の癒着によって充填し、囲まれています。
