Objective To study the effect of Bushen Tiaojing Chinese herbs on the expressions of endometrial integrin ?3 in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) receiving ovulation induction therapies. Methods Thirty-six PCOS related infertility patients were divided into 2 groups at random, receiving different ovulation induction therapies:17 patients of group A were given clomephine citrate (CC)/human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) therapies, and 19 patients of group B were given CC/ hCG combined with Chinese herbs therapies. 22 infertile women with fallopian tubal or male infactors were chosen as controls. The mRNA expressions of integrin ?3 in midluteal endometrium were measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Results Compared with controls, the expressions of endometrial integrin ?3 were weaker in group A (P0.05). Conclusion CC/hCG ovulation induction therapies may induce the decline of endometrium receptivity during midluteal phase, which Chinese herbs may promote.
