Research Abstract |
Under the condition of diabetes or allergy, differentiation of uterine natural killer (uNK) cells was delayed, their apoptosis was inhibited, and placental growth factor (PlGF) was decreased in production. However, the number of mature uNK cells was significantly increased, suggesting that deficiency of PlGF was compensated with PlGF secreted by uNK cells. Under such conditions, expression of vascular endothelial growth factor had no changes, but decidualization was promoted, suggesting that differentiation of uNK cells was induced by insulin-like growth factor and interleukin-15 derived from decidual cells.
