From: Gene expression profiles separate endometriosis lesion subtypes and indicate a sensitivity of endometrioma to estrogen suppressive treatments through elevated ESR2 expression

Fig. 8

Correlation matrix displaying the correlation coefficients for the level of expression of gene pairs targeted by endometriosis treatment. Gene expression was measured in endometriotic lesion samples taken from women without treatment (untreated) and with treatment (treated). Correlations in SUP (a, b), without treatment (a) and with treatment (b) remained consistent. In contrast, the correlation between hormonal receptors in OMA (c, d) showed significant variation when comparing c without treatment and d with treatment. Similar analysis of DIE lesions (e, f) identified small differences in the correlation between hormone receptors both e without and f with treatment. * represents nominally significant correlations
