Extracellular microRNAs profile in human follicular fluid and IVF outcomes.

ABSTRACT: Encapsulated microRNAs (i.e., miRNAs within the extracellular vesicles, i.e., EV-miRNAs) have been detected in follicular fluid in both animal and human studies and different profiles have been associated with IVF cycle characteristics. However, limited studies to date have investigated other IVF outcomes, including fertilization status and embryo quality on day three". In this cohort, we performed a cross-sectional analysis on 126 women who contributed follicular fluid from a single follicle during a single IVF cycle. One hundred and ninety-two EV-miRNAs were assessed by univariable fold-change and multivariable logistic regression analyses. Hsa-miR-92a and hsa-miR-130b, were over-expressed in follicular fluid samples from oocytes that failed to fertilize compared to those that were norma
