Endometrial receptivity is a complex and critical process fundamental to achieving a successful pregnancy. While researchers have made significant strides in understanding the underlying mechanisms governing endometrial receptivity, effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies remain scarce. This review article aims to elucidate the various factors that contribute to endometrial receptivity, including the hormonal regulation and molecular mechanisms that govern this process, as well as potential biomarkers for assessing endometrial receptivity. One of the major challenges in identifying reliable biomarkers for endometrial receptivity is the intricate nature of the process itself. Nonetheless, recent advances in transcriptomic and proteomic technologies have identified several candidate biomarkers that could potentially enhance our ability to predict endometrial receptivity. Furthermore, emerging technologies such as single-cell RNA sequencing and mass spectrometry-based proteomics hold great promise for providing novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying endometrial receptivity. Despite the lack of reliable biomarkers, various therapeutic strategies have been proposed to improve endometrial receptivity. One promising approach involves the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which have been shown to increase endometrial thickness and receptivity in both animal models and clinical trials. Growth factors, cytokines, and exosomes derived from MSCs and other cell types may also have therapeutic potential for addressing endometrial dysfunction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
