Targeting macrophage lipid uptake for miscarriage
Targeting macrophage CD36, a cell surface receptor that mediates lipid uptake, could help prevent miscarriage by decreasing the transfer of the lipid arachidonic acid from stromal cells into macrophages, and subsequent production of the inflammatory proteins COX2 and PGE2.
In decidual sections from women with miscarriage, lipid droplets were increased compared with decidua from women with normal pregnancies. ...
