STUDY QUESTION Can supplementation of medium with prolactin (PRL), epidermal growth
factor (EGF) and 4-hydroxyestradiol (4-OH-E2) prior to embryo transfer improve implantation …

We previously showed that blastocyst can initiate implantation beyond the normal 'window'of
uterine receptivity on day 5 of pregnancy and pseudopregnancy (PSP) in mice. In this study …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of progesterone and ovarian stimulation on
the development and implantation rate of mouse embryos. Two-cell embryos were collected …

The objective of this study was to determine whether epidermal growth factor (EGF)
promotes nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation of mouse oocytes grown in vivo or in vitro. In …

The success of implantation is an interactive process between the blastocyst and the uterus.
Synchronized development of embryos with uterine differentiation to a receptive state is …

Purpose The outcomes of in-vitro maturation (IVM) are inferior compared to those of IVF. The
purpose of the study was to compare the implantation rates of IVM-and in-vivo maturation …

The implantation process is highly complex and difficult to mimic in vitro, and a reliable
experimental model of implantation has yet to be established. Many researchers have used …

Objective: To develop an effective ICR mouse embryo culture medium. Design: In vitro
model study. Setting: University-affiliated hospital. Animals: Four-week-old, superovulated …

Implantation of a blastocyst into a receptive uterus involves a series of highly coordinated
cellular and molecular events directed by ovarian estrogen and progesterone. In particular …

Failure of implantation after in vitro fertilization is sometimes associated with elevated
estradiol (E 2): progesterone (P) ratios in the early luteal phase. Using the mouse to study …
