Uterine fluid microRNAs in repeated implantation failure

Abstract

Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a significant obstacle in assisted reproductive procedures, primarily because of compromised receptivity. As such, there is a need for a dependable and accurate clinical test to evaluate endometrial receptiveness, particularly during embryo transfer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have diverse functions in the processes of implantation and pregnancy. Dysregulation of miRNAs results in reproductive diseases such as recurrent implantation failure (RIF). The endometrium secretes several microRNAs (miRNAs) during the implantation period, which could potentially indicate whether the endometrium is suitable for in vitro fertilization (IVF). The goal of this review is to examine endometrial miRNAs as noninvasive biomarkers that successfully predict endometrium receptivity in RIF.
