Abstract
The effects of assisted reproductive technologies on the development of hypertensive phenotype were reviewed. A special emphasis is made on the effects of embryo culture and subsequent transfer on the blood pressure in the offspring. The analysis of studies with the laboratory models, mostly hypertensive strains of rats, is performed. These data are discussed in the context of the use theassisted reproductive technologies in medicine.
