PURPOSE: Emerging evidence suggests that an abnormal endometrial microbiota may be a potential factor contributing to recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). This study aimed to characterize the endometrial microbiota in patients with RPL and to ex…

Understanding human endometrial dynamics in the establishment of endometrial receptivity remains a challenge, which limits early diagnosis and treatment of endometrial-factor infertility. Here, we decode the endometrial dynamics of fertile …

During implantation, a symphony of interaction between the trophoblast originated from the trophectoderm of the implanting blastocyst and the endometrium leads to a successful pregnancy. Defective interaction between the trophoblast and end…

Maternal-fetal immune-tolerance occurs throughout the whole gestational trimester, thus a mother can accept a genetically distinct fetus without immunological aggressive behavior. HLA-G, one of the non-classical HLA class I molecules, is re…

BACKGROUND: The human leukocyte antigen G5 subtype (HLA-G5) is a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule that is selectively expressed at the maternal-foetal tissue interface and is required for the successful implantation of the in…

PURPOSE: To study the chromosome constitution of equal-sized three-cell embryo. METHODS: We determined the chromosome constitution of 105 blastomeres from 35 embryos using multiple annealing and looping-based amplification cycles (MALBAC) …

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the role and efficacy of preventing bone mineral loss in patients with endometriosis treated by gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogues (GnRH-a) combined with add-back therapy. METHODS: Prospective, randomized cont…

This study compared the effects of human follicular fluid (hFF) from women with endometriosis, tubal factor and male factor on the zona binding capacity of human spermatozoa. Samples of hFF were collected from 30 patients, 10 patients for e…
