Pregnancy trained decidual NK cells protect pregnancies from harmful Fusobacterium nucleatum infection.
Natural killer cells (NKs) found during pregnancy at the maternal-fetal interface named decidual (d)NKs, show signs of education following first pregnancy, resulting in better placentation and fetus-growth, hence termed pregnancy trained dNKs (PTdNKs). Here we show that PTdNKs provide increased prot...
