A synchronized development of embryo and endometrium is a prerequisite
for a successful implantation. During the time of implantation,
pinopodes appear on the endometrial surface. The precise function of
these structural markers of endometrial receptivity is not known, but
it is generally believed that they play a role in the implantation
process. Further understanding of the function of these biomarkers and
their role in embryo implantation could aid in better diagnosis and
treatment of infertile couples in the future
