Placental inflammasome signaling: Protection for mother and baby

The second trimester of pregnancy is traditionally viewed as an immunosuppressive state. Megli et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20200649) change this paradigm, showing that midgestation induces inflammasome signaling in placental trophoblasts to promote fetal and maternal antimicrobial defense.

description The second trimester of pregnancy is traditionally viewed as an immunosuppressive state. Megli et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20200649) change this paradigm, showing that midgestation induces inflammasome signaling in placental trophoblasts to promote fetal and maternal antimicrobial defense. The placenta is thus a dynamic immunological organ.
