Abstract Background: Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) has played a vital role in a series of reproductive events, including follicle growth, embryo growth and differentiation. However, it is unclear whether the level of LIF in embryo culture medium can be used as a marker for clinical pregnancy. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether LIF level in embryo culture medium can act as a predictive marker for pregnancy outcome of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in infertile patients due to tubal problems.Methods: A total of 104 infertile patients due to tubal problems underwent IVF-ET treatment. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they were clinically pregnant. The level of LIF in the embryo culture medium was measured, and the correlation between LIF level and embryo quality and clinical pregnancy outcome was analyzed. The embryo culture medium was collected on the day of blastocyst transplantation.Results: Compared to non-pregnant group, LIF level in the embryo culture medium on the day of blastocyst transplantation was significantly higher in the pregnant group.Conclusions: LIF level in the embryo culture medium may be used as a non-invasive auxiliary biomarker for predictive clinical pregnancy in infertile patients with tubal problems that using single blastocyst transfer method.
