Serum Reproductive Hormone Profiles and Endometrial Expression of miR-16-5p, VEGF Gene, and Protein, and CD31-Positive Cells following Progesterone and EGCG Administration
Exogenous progesterone or EGCG may influence endothelial cell proliferation by altering steroid hormone concentrations, miR-16-5p synthesis, and the post-transcriptional regulation of VEGF expression. However, further studies are required, particularly to explore other angiogenesis-related factors.
