OBJECTIVETo study the effects and underlying mechanisms of Zhuyun Recipe (ZR) on the endometrial receptivity in ovarian stimulation (OS) and blastocyst implantation dysfunction (BID) mice.

METHODSTotally 200 normal female Kunming mice were randomly divided into 6 groups, i. e., the control group (Group A), the OS group (Group B), the OS + ZR group (Group C), the BID group (Group D), the BID + ZR group (Group E), and the ZR group (Group F). The pregnant mare's serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) were intraperitoneally injected to mice in Group B. Mifepristone was subcutaneously injected to mice in Group D at 9:00 am on the 4th gestation day. Corresponding medications were given to mice in Group C, E, and F at 1.5 mL/100 g by gastrogavage at 8:00 am from the first to the 4th gestation day. Eight uterus samples were collected at 9:00 pm on the 4th gestation day and fixed. The expression levels of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and integrin beta3 were detected using immunohistochemical assay. The pregnant mice were sacrificed at 9:30 pm on the 8th gestation day, and their uterus were taken out. The number of blastocysts was counted.

RESULTSCompared with Group A, the pregnant rate was 6.67% (1/15 cases) in Group B and 18.75% (3/16 cases) in Group D, the mean OD value of LIF was 0. 18 +/- 0.02 in Group B and 0.23 +/- 0.02 in Group D, and the mean OD value of integrin beta3 was 0.20 +/- 0.05 in Group B and 0.19 +/- 0. 02 in Group D, showing statistical difference (P < 0.01). The pregnant rate was 54.55% (12/22 cases) in Group C and 65. 22% (15/23 cases) in Group E, the mean OD value of LIF was 0.37 +/- 0. 09 in Group C and 0.39 +/- 0.02 in Group E, and the mean OD value of integrin beta3 was 0.34 +/- 0.04 in Group C and 0.38 +/- 0.08 in Group E, showing statistical difference when compared with those of Group B and Group D respectively (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSOS and BID had negative effects on the endometrial receptivity and hindered the blastocyst implantation. ZR could improve the uterine receptivity and elevate the pregnant rate by up-regulating the expressions of endometrial LIF and integrin beta3.
