Decidual Macrophage Functional Polarization during Abnormal Pregnancy due to Toxoplasma gondii: Role for LILRB4
During gestation, Toxoplasma gondii infection produces a series of complications including stillbirths, abortions, and congenital malformations. The inhibitory receptor, LILRB4, which is mainly expressed by professional antigen-presenting cells (especially macrophages and dendritic cells) may play an important immune-regulatory role at the maternal-fetal interface. To assess the role of LILRB4 ...
متن کاملA Meta Analysis on Risks of Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes in Toxoplasma gondii Infection
OBJECTIVE Quantified risks of congenital Toxoplasma gondii infection and abnormal pregnancy outcomes following primary maternal infection were evaluated with meta- analysis based on published studies. METHODS The related literatures were searched in multiple literature databases regardless of languages. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the risks of vertic...
متن کاملToxoplasma gondii Infection Regulates the Balance of Activating and Inhibitory Receptors on Decidual Natural Killer Cells
Inhibitory receptors and activating receptor expressed on decidual natural killer (dNK) cells are generally believed to be important in abnormal pregnancy outcomes and induced adverse pregnancy. However, if Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infection induced abnormal pregnancy was related to dNK cells changes is not clear. In this study, we used human dNK cells co-cultured with human extravillous c...
متن کاملDetection of Toxoplasma gondii DNA and specific antibodies in high-risk pregnant women.
Primary maternal infection with toxoplasmosis during pregnancy is frequently associated with transplacental transmission to the fetus. This study was conducted to test the utility of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay to detect recent infections with Toxoplasma in pregnant women. One hundred forty-eight women with high-risk pregnancies who had abnormal pregnancy outcomes (cases) and 100 wi...
متن کاملAdoptive transfer of Treg cells counters adverse effects of Toxoplasma gondii infection on pregnancy.
Acute infection with Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) during pregnancy is associated with adverse outcomes. The mechanisms that cause this phenomenon are not clear. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are involved in maternal tolerance, and here we observed a decrease in the absolute numbers of CTLA-4(+) Tregs and PD-1(+) Tregs in spleen and at the fetal-maternal interface in T. gondii-infected mice. Our r...
