子宫自然杀伤细胞在复发性流产中的作用研究进展

Research advances in role of uterine natural killer cells in recurrent spontaneous abortion

  • 摘要: 据世界卫生组织的定义,复发性流产是指与同一配偶连续发生2次及以上妊娠28周之前的妊娠丢失;40%~60%的复发性流产患者病因不明。在子宫内膜的增殖期,子宫自然杀伤(uterine natural killer,uNK)细胞占免疫细胞群总数的30%~40%,在分泌期高达70%,在维持母胎界面的免疫微环境方面发挥着关键作用。本文从诱导局部免疫耐受、促进子宫血管重构、调节滋养细胞分化与侵袭等方面介绍uNK细胞如何参与正常生理妊娠中母胎界面的免疫平衡的维持,并从配受体结合异常、干扰子宫动脉重塑、激素调节轴异常等方面介绍其功能异常在复发性流产中的作用途径,为进一步了解复发性流产发生机制、掌握预防手段和治疗方法、改善疾病预后提供参考。

     

    Abstract: According to the definition of the World Health Organization (WHO), recurrent spontaneous abortion refers to two or more successive pregnancy losses with the same spouse before 28 weeks of pregnancy. The etiology remains unknown in 40% to 60% of patients with recurrent miscarriage. During the proliferative phase of the endometrium, uterine natural killer cells account for approximately 30%-40% of the total immune cell population, and up to 70% during the secretory phase, playing a critical role in maintaining the immune microenvironment at the maternal fetal interface. This review describes how uterine natural killer cells participate in maintaining the immune balance at the maternal fetal interface during normal physiological pregnancy, including inducing local immune tolerance, promoting uterine vascular remodeling, and regulating trophoblast differentiation and invasion, summarizes the functional pathways of uterine natural killer cells in recurrent miscarriage from aspects such as receptor binding abnormalities, interference with uterine artery remodeling, and hormone regulatory axis abnormalities. These findings provide critical insights into elucidating the pathogenesis of recurrent miscarriage, advancing preventive strategies and therapeutic interventions, and ultimately improving clinical outcomes.
