Reproductive Immunology: Basic Concepts gives a holistic insight
into the understanding of the complex interactions between the
maternal immune system and the fetal/placental unit necessary for
the success of pregnancy. This interaction is critical for the
support of the human fetal semiallograft and the protection against
infections. The book covers various topics such as B cells,
macrophages, T cells, discussion on fetal signals and their impact
on maternal reproductive cells such as endometrial cells, mast
cells, and the role of fetal Hofbauer cells, the immune regulatory
role of glucorticoids, and many other novel topics within the field
of reproductive immunology. Edited and written by experts in the
field, this book introduces the up-to-date knowledge of the role of
the immune system during pregnancy and provides the necessary
background to understand pregnancy complications associated with
alterations in the functioning of the immune system. The book
provides a complete discussion on the immunological aspects of
pregnancy and serves as a great tool for research scientists,
students, reproductive immunologists and OBGYNs.
