ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Female fertility has been a field of interest for the scientific community throughout the years. The contribution of proteomics in the study of female fertility as well as female infertility and in vitro fertilization (IVF) has been significant. Proteomics is a recently developed field, extensively applied to the identification and quantification of proteins, which could be used as potential biomarkers in a diagnostic, prognostic, or predictive manner in a variety of medical conditions. AREAS COVERED: The present review focuses on proteomic studies of the oocyte and endometrial environment as well as on conditions related to infertility, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome, endometriosis, obesity, and unexplained infertility. Moreover, this review presents studies that have been done in an effort to search for fertility biomarkers in individuals following the IVF procedure. EXPERT OPINION: The comprehension of the molecular pathways behind female fertility and infertility could contribute to the diagnosis, prognosis, and prediction of infertility. Moreover, the identification of proteomic biomarkers for IVF cycles could predict the possible outcome of an IVF cycle, prevent an unsuccessful IVF, and monitor the IVF cycle in a personalized manner, leading to increased success rates.

ABSTRACT

The evolution of the field of assisted reproduction technology (ART) in the last 40 years has significantly contributed to the management of global infertility. Despite the great numbers of live births that have been achieved through ART, there is still potential for increasing the success rates. As a result, there is a need to create optimum conditions in order to increase ART efficacy. The selection of the best sperm, oocyte, and embryo, as well as the achievement of optimal endometrial receptivity, through the contribution of new diagnostic and treatment methods, based on a personalized proteomic approach, may assist in the attainment of this goal. Proteomics represent a powerful new technological development, which seeks for protein biomarkers in human tissues. These biomarkers may aid to predict the outcome, prevent failure, and monitor in a personalized manner in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. In this review, we will present data from studies that have been conducted in the search for such biomarkers in order to identify proteins related to good sperm, oocyte, and embryo quality, as well as optimal endometrial receptivity, which may later lead to greater results and the desirable ART outcome.
