Differentiation and Elimination of Uterine Natural Killer Cells in Delayed Implantation and Parturition Mice
Open accessAbstract
To clarify the roles of uterine natural killer (uNK) cells in implantation and parturition, differentiation and elimination of uNK cells in the pregnant uterus was examined using artificial delayed implantation (DI) and delayed parturition (DP) mice. To prepare DI mice, pregnant mice were ovariectomized on the third day of pregnancy (D3) and treated with 2 mg progesterone daily. The same amount of progesterone was administered on D15 or D17 of normal pregnant mice at 24 h intervals until sampling to prepare DP mice. The uNK cells contained PAS-positive granules on D8 in DI mice. The uNK cells in DI mice were smaller in size, and differentiation of these cells was delayed compared to those of the control mice. From D19 to D21 in DP mice, the metrial gland was well developed and uNK cells were present. The number of uNK cell granules decreased on D21, and there were no uNK cells in the normal pregnant mice. This result suggests that differentiation of uNK cells is not directly related to implantation, but elimination of these cells is closely involved in parturition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
