Role of NK cells and HLA-G in endometriosis
Frontiers in bioscience (Scholar edition) ·doi:10.2741/s353

Impaired natural killer (NK) activity in women with endometriosis is thought to promote implantation and progression of endometrial tissue, in accord with Sampson's hypothesis. However, the mechanisms responsible for decreased NK cell activ…
