Abstract

A variety of cell types at the blastocyst implantation site produce cytokines and growth factors that could play an important role in the implantation process. Furthermore, receptors for cytokines and growth factors have been detected on embryonic and trophoblastic cells. The purpose of the article is to review the published literature on the effect of cytokines and growth factors on implantation events, and to present recent data from our laboratory on effects of growth factors and cytokines on mouse blastocyst implantation events in vitro.

## Background: Interactions between bone marrow-derived cytokines, growth factors, and tumors play a critical role in both the homing of tumors to the bone and the development of bone metastasis. bone is a storehouse of latent growth factors produced by stromal cells and osteoblasts that, when acti
