BMC Veterinary Research

Table 1 The effect of repeated sampling on the mRNA transcription of PTGS2, PTGES, or PTGFS in equine endometrium

	Number sampling
	3	2	1
PTGS2 mRNA transcription (mean ± SEM)	0.072 ± 0.018^a	0.241 ± 0.059^a	0.154 ± 0.057^a
PTGES mRNA transcription (mean ± SEM)	0.159 ± 0.048^a	0.244 ± 0.096^a	0.047 ± 0.01^a
PTGFS mRNA transcription (mean ± SEM)	0.352 ± 0.067^a	0.993 ± 0.355^a	0.34 ± 0.232^a

Superscript letters ^a within the row indicate no significant between investigated groups. The results were considered significant when different at P < 0.05
