Abstract
We analyzed the effect of individual cytokines that are secretory products of placenta typical of the uteroplacental bed. The proinflammatory cytokines IL-6, IFNγ, and IL-1β increased the expression of TGFβR2 molecule by trophoblast cells, while VEGF and PLGF increased the expression of CD45, CD29, and CD54 adhesion molecule by trophoblast cells. The antiinflammatory cytokine IL-4 increased LeptinR expression by trophoblast cells. PMA and TNFα also enhanced the adhesion of NK cells to trophoblast cells. Our findings suggest that NK cells involved CD11a, CD11b, and CD18 molecules during their transmigration through trophoblast, as well as during their transendothelial migration.
