ADAMTS9-AS1 expression was increased in ecEM tissues. (A) qPCR analysis of ADAMTS9-AS1 in paired ecEM and euEM tissues (n = 17) in women with EMs. (B) A murine model of EMs was established, and the expression level of ADAMTS9-AS1 was assessed using qPCR analysis in ecEM and euEM tissues (n = 5). (C) Primary EESCs and NESCs were isolated from ecEM and euEM tissues of EMs mice, respectively, and then the ADAMTS9-AS1 level was assessed using qPCR analysis (n = 5). **p < 0.01.
