Regulatory T cells induce polarization of pro-repair macrophages by secreting sFGL2 into the endometriotic milieu
Communications biology ·doi:10.1038/s42003-021-02018-z

An increased number of highly active regulatory T cells (Tregs) and macrophages has been found in peritoneal fluid from women with endometriosis. Here, we show that the level of Tregs-derived soluble fibrinogen-like protein 2 (sFGL2) increa…

The CCL17‐CCR4 axis between endometrial stromal cells and macrophages contributes to the high levels of IL‐6 in ectopic milieu
American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989) ·doi:10.1111/aji.12644

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the elevation of proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6, in the peritoneal fluid. However, the precise mechanism of the highly elevated IL-6 levels in ectopic milieu remains …

Fractalkine/CX3CR1 is involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis by regulating endometrial stromal cell proliferation and invasion
American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989) ·doi:10.1111/aji.12557

PROBLEM: Chemokines have been reported to play a sovereign role in the establishment and progression of endometriosis. Fractalkine is a chemokine that is upregulated in many inflammatory diseases including endometriosis. Fractalkine functio…
