Natural Cytotoxicity Receptors in Decidua Natural Killer Cells of Term Normal Pregnancy

Figure 5

(a) Percentage of CD337 (NKp30)+ cells among CD56+CD3− cells at term pregnancy in peripheral blood and decidua. The percentage of CD337 (NKp30)+ cells in CD56+3- lymphocytes was lower than in peripheral blood. (b) Representative dot plot analysis of CD337 (NKp30)+ cells among CD56+CD3- lymphocytes taken from term pregnancy by flow cytometry. The gate was set around the CD3- lymphocytes to analyze the CD337+CD56+ NK cells.
