Preliminary Assessment of Galectin-3 Expression in Serum and Follicular Fluid: Implications for Predicting In Vitro Fertilization Outcomes.

Galactin-3 has been found to be involved in oocyte maturation, folliculogenesis, implantation, and placentation. The expression of Galactin-3 in the endometrium of women who have successfully undergone in vitro fertilization (IVF) has been suggested as a potential biomarker for predicting successful embryo implantation.
