ProblemThe aim of this prospective study was to evaluate phenotypic differences of helper T (Th), cytotoxic T (Tc), and regulatory T (Treg) cells in the deciduae of missed miscarriage with a normal chromosome karyotype of a fetus (MN) and missed miscarriage with an abnormal chromosome karyotype of a fetus (MA).Methods of studyThe decidua of 19 MN and 28 MA was obtained. Additionally, the decidua of 15 induced abortion (IA) and the endometrium of 19 non-pregnant women (EM) were obtained. IFN-(+), IL-17(+), CD25(high)Foxp3(+) cells in CD4(+) (Th) cells, and IFN-(+) cells in CD8(+) (Tc) cells were evaluated by flow cytometry.ResultsThe percentages of IFN-(+) Tc and CD4(+)CD25(high)Foxp3(+) (Treg) cells in MN were significantly increased as compared with MA and IA. The percentage of IFN-(+) Th in MN was increased as compared with IA.ConclusionActivation of IFN-(+) Tc and Treg cells in the decidua might be associated with the pathophysiology underlying MN.
