Characterization of Uterine NK Cells in Women with Infertility or Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Associated Endometriosis

article OA: green CC0 ⤵ 4 in-corpus citations

Abstract

Uterine natural killer cells (uNK) have been thought to play a key role in endometriosis and infertility. We investigated the expression of CD56, CD16 and NKp46 in endometrial tissues from 61 women with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (uRPL) or infertility (UI), and correlated this with the presence or absence of endometriosis. The results from the patients with sub-fertility were compared to those from 10 fertile patients.
