Innate Lymphoid Cells in the Maternal and Fetal Compartments

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Pregnancy success is orchestrated by the complex balance between the maternal and fetal immune systems. Herein, we summarize the potential role of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) in the maternal and fetal compartments.

Effects of Circulating and Local Uteroplacental Angiotensin II in Rat Pregnancy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The renin-angiotensin (Ang) system is important during placental development. Dysregulation of the renin-Ang system is important in preeclampsia (PE). Female rats transgenic for the human angiotensinogen gene crossed with males transgenic for the human ...

Are B cells altered in the decidua of women with preterm or term labor?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 2019
The immunophenotype of B cells at the maternal‐fetal interface (decidua) in labor at term and preterm labor is poorly understood.

Uterine natural killer cell heterogeneity: Lessons from mouse models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Natural killer (NK) cells are the most abundant lymphocytes at the maternal-fetal interface. Epidemiological data implicate NK cells in human pregnancy outcomes.

Increased angiogenic factor secretion by decidual natural killer cells from pregnancies with high uterine artery resistance alters trophoblast function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
STUDY QUESTION Are the concentrations of factors secreted by decidual natural killer (dNK) cells from pregnancies at high risk of poor spiral artery remodelling different to those secreted from pregnancies at low risk?

Human Innate Lymphoid Cells: Their Functional and Cellular Interactions in Decidua

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) are developmentally related cell subsets that play a major role in innate defenses against pathogens, in lymphoid organogenesis and in tissue remodeling. The best characterized ILC are natural killer (NK) cells.

Stimulation of hCG protein and mRNA in first trimester villous cytotrophoblast cells in vitro by glycodelin A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Aim: Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is produced by fetal trophoblast cells and secreted into maternal circulation mainly in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Unique Eomes+ NK Cell Subsets Are Present in Uterus and Decidua During Early Pregnancy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
Decidual and uterine natural killer (NK) cells have been shown to contribute to the successful pregnancy both in humans and mice. NK cells represent “cytotoxic” group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and are distinct from the recently described “helper ...

Immunohistochemical Evaluation of CD3, CD4, CD8, and CD20 in Decidual and Trophoblastic Tissue Specimens of Patients with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

open access: yesClinics and Practice, 2022
Recurrent miscarriages affect up to 5% of couples. CD3+ (T-lymphocytes), CD4+ (helper T-lymphocytes), CD8+ (cytotoxic T-lymphocytes), and CD20+ (B-lymphocytes) cells may participate in the pathophysiology of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL).
