Reproductive Immunology

Reproductive immunology examines immune responses related to pregnancy, fertility, and reproductive disorders. It investigates immune tolerance mechanisms that enable successful embryo implantation, fetal development, and pregnancy maintenance while preventing maternal immune rejection of the fetus. Research in reproductive immunology addresses immunological factors contributing to infertility, recurrent miscarriages, pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia, and preterm birth. Insights into immune interactions at the maternal-fetal interface guide therapeutic interventions to support reproductive health, improve pregnancy outcomes, and develop immune modulatory strategies for reproductive disorders.
