Human Endometrial Receptivity and Embryo- Endometrium Interactions
Infertility is an increasing medical and social problem affecting more than 10% of couples worldwide. Many underlying causes of human infertility have been overcome by assisted reproductive techniques; nevertheless, the implantation process remains one of the rate-limiting step as regards the success of the treatment. A prerequisite for successful implantation is the adequate preparation of a r...
متن کاملEndometrial Receptivity to Embryo Implantation: Molecular Cues from Functional Genomics
The endometrium is the mucous lining the uterine cavity comprised of a basal and a functional layer being the latter the one that sheds during menses and regenerates from the basal portion. The main cell populations within the functional stratus are epithelial and stromal cells accompanied by a variable number of leukocytes. Epithelial cells are found covering the luminal surface and tubular gl...
متن کاملExtracellular Matrix Remodeling in Hypertension
Increases in arterial blood pressure cause cumulative changes in tissue structure and function, resulting ultimately in end-organ damage. One of the pathological hallmarks of hypertensive tissue injury is an increase in tissue fibrosis, which leads to reductions in tissue compliance and function. Fibrosis (or sclerosis) occurs as result of marked changes in the amount and composition of the ext...
متن کاملAssessment of endometrial volume by three-dimensional ultrasound prior to embryo transfer: clues to endometrial receptivity.
The aim of the present prospective study was to obtain quantitative data on endometrial volume by three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound at the time of embryo transfer in an in-vitro fertilization programme and to assess its value in predicting endometrial receptivity. The cycles (n = 72) were classified according to endometrial volume: group A <2 ml, group B 2-4 ml, and group C >4 ml. Comparisons o...
متن کاملRedefining Endometrial Receptivity
However, the notion of receptivity as a static state in which the tissue is poised, frozen in time, awaiting the arrival of an adequately developed embryo, is naïve. An integrative definition of receptivity must embrace communication between maternal and embryonic tissues. At receptivity, the endometrium has reached a point at which negotiation can begin that may or may not lead to successful i...
