  2. 6. Endometrial receptivity and human embryo implantation : in vivo and in vitro studies

    Author : Sujata Lalit Kumar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : 3D-endometrial cell construct;

    Abstract : Background: Infertility, one of the common gynaecological disorders, affects 10-15% women in their reproductive years. Despite the advances in assisted reproduction techniques and the best efforts of infertility specialists, implantation rates do not exceed more than 28-30%. READ MORE

  4. 7. Endometrial, embryonic and ovarian aspects of human implantation

    Author : Lusine Aghajanova; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The general aim of the studies was to add more understanding to the mechanism of human embryo implantation, which will allow us to improve pregnancy rates in assisted reproduction. The simultaneous positive spatial and temporal expression of pinopodes with LIF, LIFR and HBEGF proteins in endometrial samples from healthy women was found. READ MORE

    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: An estimated one in four couples globally suffers from infertility or fertility related issues and rate of global infertility is about 10-15%. Despite the best optimization of assisted reproductive technique the pregnancy rate is not more than 30%. READ MORE

  7. 10. Culture and vitrification of human preembryos

    Author : Fredwell Hambiliki; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Despite improvements in stimulation protocols, culture media formulations and laboratory protocols, the success rates in human IVF remain disappointingly low. The ability to successfully cryopreserve supernumerary embryos in a given IVF cycle without losing significant embryo viability is essential to maximize the cumulative benefit of a given treatment cycle.
