Abstract:Background: Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs known as essential regulators of cell-cell communication. Recent studies have revealed that miRNAs secrete by a blastocyst in culture mediums. We hypothesized that endometrial epithelial cells take up embryo-derived miRNAs and other soluble factors and regulate their receptivity-related genes expression. Methods and Results: Blastocyst culture mediums (BCM) were collected from the individually cultured embryos and, human endometrial epithelial cells (HE… Show more
