Validation of MMP2, MMP9, VEGF-C, THBS1 and NRP2 mRNA levels by qRT-PCR. A) MMP9 mRNA levels in colony-OECs (n=3) and mature-OECs (n=5). B) MMP2 mRNA levels in colony-OECs (n=3) and mature-OECs (n=5). C) VEGF-C gene expression levels in mature-OECs (n=4) and hCMEC/D3 (n=3). D) THBS1 mRNA levels in mature-OECs (n=4) and hCMEC/D3 (n=3). E) NRP-2 mRNA in mature-OECs (n=4) and hCMEC/D3 (n=3). Expression level is relative to calibrator sample and dashed line indicates median expression for hCMEC/D3 reference. * p<0.05 (colony vs. mature-OECs); # p<0.05 (vs. hCMEC/D3).
