Popis: Objective Recurrent miscarriage (RM) is a multifactorial condition that involves frequent uterine anatomical abnormalities, parental karyotype abnormalities, and clotting disorders. We investigate the potential roles of endometrium FoxP3+ Tregs and CD56+ cells (uNK cells) and endometrial expression of PGRMC1 in the development of recurrent miscarriage. Study design This prospective study included 102 out of 286 cases of SA patients. The cases were divided into groups with RM (+RM) and without RM (-RM). Immunohistochemistry staining was made using primary antibodies to FoxP3, CD56, and PGRMC1 in both groups. Morphometry analyses were carried out in 10 non-overlapping high power fields. Mann-Whitney U test, Fisher two-tail test, correlation analysis and relative risk (RR) were evaluated. A p Results An increased presence of CD56-positive (p Conclusion Our prospective study suggests, for the first time, that increased endometrial infiltration of uNK, FoxP3+ Treg cells and a decreased PGRMC1 expression may play potential roles in the development of RM.
