Detection of Viral Infections by Innate Immunity

Michael Carty et al.

Summary: Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and inflammasomes play key roles in the anti-viral innate immune system by detecting viral molecular patterns and producing inflammatory cytokines to combat viral infections. Inflammasomes contribute to anti-viral responses by inducing cell death. Excessive innate immune responses may contribute to viral pathology.

Immune Tolerance of the Human Decidua

Hiromi Murata et al.

Summary: The endometrium is essential for implantation, placental development, and successful pregnancy, undergoing cycles of proliferation, differentiation, and shedding. Immune cells in the endometrium, with conflicting functions of protection and tolerance towards the embryo, are significantly influenced by progesterone. Key molecules like interleukin-15 play pivotal roles in immune tolerance and pregnancy establishment.

The Role of Immune Cells in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion

Dan Li et al.

Summary: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) affects 1-2% of women of childbearing age, with unknown etiology likely linked to immune aberrancy. Research shows a connection between various immune cells and RSA, highlighting the importance of understanding their interactions for preventing RSA.
