A randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of cytokine supplementation in embryo culture medium with various protein concentrations aiming to evaluate the effects of cytokines (CYK) integration into the human in vitro culture medium with high and low human serum albumin (HSA) concentrations on live birth rates after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
Oocytes were injected, and embryos cultured and transferred in three supplemented culture media.
A- A single step culture medium (SSCM; Global, Life Global)+5mg/ml (10% Vol/Vol), life global protein, without supplementation of CYK (control n=200), B- A single step culture medium (SSCM; Global, Life Global)+5mg/ml (10% Vol/Vol), life global protein, with 2ng/mL GM-CSF (granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor) (G5035 Sigma), 5ng/mL HB-EGF (Heparine Binding Epidermal Growth Factor )(E4643 Sigma),and 5ng/mL LIF (Lukemia Inhbitory Factor) (SRP9001 Sigma)(n=200).
C- A single step culture medium (SSCM; Global, Life Global) +2mg/ml (5% Vol/Vol) life global protein, with 2ng/mL GM-CSF (G5035 Sigma), 5ng/mL HB-EGF (E4643 Sigma), and 5ng/mL LIF (SRP9001 Sigma).(n=200) Setting :- - Mansoura Integrated Fertility
