Myeloid decidual dendritic cells and immunoregulation of pregnancy:Defective responsiveness to Coxiella burnetii and Brucella abortus

Dendritic cells (DCs) are a component of the placental immune system, but their role in pregnancy is still poorly understood. Decidual DCs (dDCs) were selected from at-term pregnancy on the basis of CD14 and CD11c expression. A phenotypic analysis revealed that dDCs are characterized by the expressi...
