A mechanical origin for implantation defects in embryos from aged females

Kate E. Cavanaugh, María-José Franco-Oñate, Diana J. Laird, Patrick W. Oakes, Ricard Alert, Orion David Weiner

This study identifies a mechanical defect in embryos from aged mothers that impairs implantation, showing increased trophectoderm contractility leads to defective spreading during implantation.
