Human follicular fluid is a combination of proteins, metabolites, and ionic compounds that is indicative of the general state of follicular metabolism and is associated with maturation and quality of oocytes. Deviations in these components are often associated with reproductive diseases. There has been no report of microRNAs (miRNAs) in human follicular fluids.
