Post-warming culture of human vitrified blastocysts with prolactin improves trophoblast outgrowth

Abstract Background Human embryos express the prolactin (PRL) receptor at the morula and blastocyst stages. Treatment with PRL from cleavage to the blastocyst stage improves blastocyst outgrowth on fibronectin-coated dishes. However, whether post-warming PRL treatment of blastocysts cultured without...
