| 1 | Study on the activity and phenotype of decidual natural killer cells in patients with unexplained habitual abortions显示文摘Objective:To determine the activity and phenotype of decidual natural killer (NK) cells in patients with unexplained habitual abortions (UHA).Methods:A total of 32 patients with UHA were studied, and 20 cases of normal pregnant women were selected as control group. The levels of CD56 +CD3 - NK cells and their CD56 +CD16 -, CD56 +CD16 + subsets in decidua were detected using two color flow cytometric analysis.The NK cells activity was measured by a chromium 51( 51 Cr) release cytotoxicity assay,with K562 human myeloid leukaemia cells as targets.Results:Compared with control group, the proportion of CD56 +CD3 - NK cells in decidual mononuclear cells(DMC) of UHA patients had no difference, but the CD56 +CD16 - NK cell subset decreased and the CD56 +CD16 + subset increased significantly (P<0.05). The decidual NK cells activities of UHA patients were higher than those of normal controls (P<0.05).Conclusions:NK cell is predominant lymphocyte in normal decidua and plays an important role in maintaining successful pregnancy. Abnormally raised activity and disbalanced CD56 +CD16 +, CD56 +CD16 - subsets of decidual NK cell are associated with UHA and may play a role in reproductive failure. | DongRuiying LiHongrong LuJiming LiuHaiying LiXiaomei CuiBaoxia JiangSen | 2004 | 现代妇产科进展2004，13，5： | 0 |
