“…According to a previous study, a variety of growth factors were found in human ASC-CM including fibroblast, transforming, vascular endothelial, epidermal, insulin-like, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating, and platelet-derived growth factors [19,33]. These are representative factors with supportive effects on preimplantation embryo development, which have been demonstrated for decades, in addition to an increase in blastocyst formation rate, cell number, expansion, hatching, protein synthesis, and decrease in apoptosis [7,[34][35][36][37][38]. Although the effectiveness of these factors present in ASC-CM has been proven, the treatment concentration should be determined in order to develop an optimal IVC medium.…”
