The Role of Cytokines in Gestation
Abstract
Lymphohemopoietic cytokines are now recognized to be central participants in the cellular communication events underlying the complex and dynamic remodeling processes required to accommodate the semiallogeneic conceptus during mammalian reproduction. Cytokines are identified to be particular importance in mediating communications between the conceptus and maternal cells, particularly the uterine epithelium and infiltrating leukocytes, both prior to implantation and as the placenta develops. In this review we summarize recent experimental data concerning the synthesis of various cytokines in uterine and conceptus-derived tissues and highlight current hypotheses for their roles in establishing and maintaining successful pregnancy. It is concluded that complex and finely balanced cytokine networks underpin precise regulatory mechanisms controlling the rate and degree of conceptus development and invasion into maternal tissues.

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.
