The role of the maternal immune system in reproductive success in humans remains
controversial. Here we focus on the events that occur in the maternal decidua during the first …

Recent years have seen a marked increase in our understanding of innate lymphoid cells
(ILCs). ILCs can be classified into different groups based on their similarity to T cell subsets …

The exponential growth of precision diagnostic tools, including omic technologies, molecular
diagnostics, sophisticated genetic and epigenetic editing, imaging and nano‐technologies …

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), composed mainly of Crohn's disease (CD) and
ulcerative colitis (UC), are strongly implicated in the development of intestinal inflammation …

Recent findings have uncovered novel fascinating aspects of the biology of neutrophils,
which ultimately attribute to these cells a broader role in inflammation and immunity. One …

Immunological adaptations in pregnancy allow maternal tolerance of the semi-allogeneic
fetus but also increase maternal susceptibility to infection. At implantation, the endometrial …

Mucosal surfaces are key interfaces between the host and its environment, but also
constitute ports of entry for numerous pathogens. The gut and lung mucosae act as points of …

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is an obstetric complication that affects approximately 5–
10% of all pregnancies worldwide. GDM is defined as any degree of glucose intolerance …

Acute chorioamnionitis is characterized by neutrophilic infiltration and inflammation at the
maternal fetal interface. It is a relatively common complication of pregnancy and can have …

Although neutrophils are known to be fundamental in controlling innate immune responses,
their role in regulating adaptive immunity is just starting to be appreciated. We report that …
