Hormonal regulation of uterine natural killer cells in mouse preimplantation uterus.

Abstract:

:Uterine Natural Killer (uNK) cells are the most abundant lymphocyte population recruited in the uteri during murine and human pregnancy. Previous investigation on uNK cells during mouse pregnancy focused more on its accumulation in postimplantation periods, which were believed to play important roles in regulating trophoblast invasion and angiogenesis towards successful placentation. However, by using recently developed methods of Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) lectin, a closer examination during mouse preimplantation revealed that there were also dynamic regulations of uNK cell, suggesting a major regulation by steroid hormones. Here we provide a detailed examination of uNK cells distribution during mouse early pregnancy by DBA lectin reactivity, with emphasis on preimplantation period and its hormonal regulation profiles. Our results showed that uNK precursor cells or its cell membrane specific components could be recruited in the uterus by estrogen or/and progesterone, and the effects could be completely abolished by specific antagonists of their nuclear receptors (estrogen and progesterone receptor). These results suggested that the preimplantation uterus, through concerted hormone regulation, could recruit uNK precursor cell or its specific cellular component, which might be conducive for uterine receptivity and further uNK construction/function during postimplantation.
