Although retrograde menstruation is observed in up to 90% of women, endometriosis actually develops in only 15% of women. There is considerable evidence in the literature that ectopic endometrial cells are able to evade immune surveillance …

Background: The presence of regulatory T (Treg) cells in human endometrium is crucial for maintaining immunological homeostasis within the uterus. For this study we decided to evaluate the subpopulations of Treg cells in conditions where a …

PROBLEM: The relationship between endometriosis and cancer has been widely discussed in the literature but is still not well clarified. Perhaps significantly, soluble human leukocyte antigen-G (sHLA-G) has been identified in the microenviro…

INTRODUCTION: The selective suppression phenomenon of the cytotoxic immune response occurs in the endometrium at the beginning of decidualization. This process seems to be associated with an increase in the endometrial expression of protein…

BACKGROUND: HLA-G is an antigen whose participation in the regulation of the immune system is well documented. The aim of the present study has therefore been to evaluate the sHLA-G blood serum concentrations levels in both women with ovari…

PROBLEM: The selective suppression phenomenon of the cytotoxic immune response may be brought about by an increase in sRCAS1 blood serum concentration. Such an increase has been observed during cancer progression and decidualization. The ai…

Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/1477-7827-4-41

BACKGROUND: The coexistence of endometrial and immune cells during decidualization is preserved by the ability of endometrial cells to regulate the cytotoxic immune activity and their capability to be resistant to immune-mediated apoptosis.…

Acquiring the immune-mediated apoptosis and the ability to regulate the cytotoxic immune response are the main phenomena playing fundamental roles in such situations as neoplasm survival and creation of immune tolerance during pregnancy. Th…

Gynecologic and obstetric investigation ·doi:10.1159/000096083

INTRODUCTION: The participation of immune tolerance during pregnancy was suggested to be an important factor predisposing to the implantation of decidual cells after cesarean section in Pfannenstiel scar. Delivery at term is related to the …

OBJECTIVE: Endometrium is a specialized organ in which phenomena controlling the level of cell proliferation and apoptosis are marked. The aim of our study was to determine the presence of proteins involved in apoptosis and proliferation: R…
