Altered Carcinoembryonic Antigen-Related Cell Adhesion Molecule 1/T-Cell Immunoglobulin Mucin-3 Signaling Causes the Dysregulation of Decidual CD8+T Cells in the Third Trimester during Preeclamptic Pregnancies
Abstract:Objective:
To investigate the frequency and function of Tim-3+CD8+T cells in the third trimester of normal pregnancies (NPs) and preeclamptic (PE) pregnancies.
Methods:
T-cell immunoglobulin mucin-3 (Tim-3) expression levels of CD8+T cells in the decidua, peripheral blood, and umbilical cord blood obtained from women showing NPs and PE pregnancies were analyzed using flow cytometry. Decidual CD8+T cells were cultured in the presence of recombinant human… Show more
