Project description:To compare the lncRNA expression profile of RIF (recurrent implantation failure) and normal control endometrium,endometrium samples were collected at window of implantation (LH+6~10 days) The dysregulated lncRNAs between RIF and control group were deem to be involve in the regulation of endometrium receptivity
Project description:we utilized Exiqon miRCURY™ LNA Array (v18.0, Exiqon, Vedbaek, Denmark) to establish miRNA expression profiles in the endometrial tissues at the time of embryo implantation(day 7 after ovulation) from 8 RIF patients and 10 matched controls. A total of 157 miRNAs exhibited distinct expression patterns in RIF patients as opposed to controls (fold change >2.0 and P-value <0.05).
Project description:Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a challenge in the field of reproductive medicine. The dysfunction of endometrium is one of the pathogenesis of implantation failure. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying the molecular pathogenesis of implantation failure.
Project description:We aimed to identify altered biological processes in the endometrium that may be potential markers of receptive endometrium. RNA expression profiling of the endometrium during the window of implantation was performed in patients with Recurrent Implantation Failure (RIF) versus fertile controls.
Project description:Transcriptomic studies have identified gene expression profiles characteristic of the window of implantation and preliminary studies have indicated that these may be disrupted in some women with recurrent implantation failure (RIF). The aims of this study were to elucidate how the endometrial gene expression profile differs between women with RIF and controls, and to investigate whether a predictor set of genes could be identified able to distinguish between these women.
Project description:Transcriptome profile of receptive phase endometrium among infertile women with recurrent implantation failure (RIF) in two different endometrial preparation protocols for FET was analyzed: natural cycle (NC-FET) vs. artificial cycle (AC-FET). Fifteen endometrial biopsy samples were obtained: women with unexplained RIF (n = 5) in natural cycles for FET (NC-FET), women with unexplained RIF undergoing artificial endometrial preparation (n = 5) for FET (AC-FET), and healthy women (n = 5) with proven fertility in natural cycles (NC-FC) (Control group). All endometrial biopsies were obtained during the mid-secretory phase, at the time of ‘window of implantation’.

Project description:Our study is designed to demonstrate altered profiles of circRNAs in the luteal-phase endometrium from patients with RIF. Functional studies will be further confirmed. This study will provide new viewpoint for understanding the roles of non-coding RNA for endometrial stromal cells and epithelial cells function, as well as potential etiologic mechanism for RIF.
Project description:The objective of the study was to compare the microRNA content in uterine fluid from patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF) to that of healthy fertile women. It is a descriptive laboratory study including healthy fertile women and patients with RIF, defined as three failed in vitro fertilization cycles with high quality embryos. Study subjects were instructed to monitor their menstrual cycles using a luteinizing hormone test kit. Uterine fluid was collected on day LH+ 7-9 by flushing with saline. Samples were processed for small RNA sequencing and results were analysed using bioinformatics. The main outcome measure was to identify differentially expressed miRNAs between patients with RIF and healthy fertile women.
