Abstract
Dyslipidemia is a common metabolic disorder around the world, with a higher incidence in the population of childbearing age and those experiencing infertility. Increasing research has been focused on the impact of dyslipidemia on female reproduction. This article reviews relevant clinical and basic science research on the effects of dyslipidemia on female reproduction, particularly paying attention to immune inflammatory changes in the endometrium. A comprehensive overview of the physiological effects of lipid metabolism on innate and adaptive immunity is provided, specifically examining the relationship between lipid metabolism and endometrial immune homeostasis, as well as the changes observed in women with reproductive failures. Moreover, the alterations in endometrial gene expressions and immune effectors in women with dyslipidemia and reproductive disorders are discussed, offering a new perspective on the reproductive disorders in women with dyslipidemia. Considering the significant involvement of lipid metabolism in human reproduction, gaining a deeper insight into dyslipidemia and female reproduction could have important clinical implications for the diagnosis and management of female reproductive disorders.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Seminars in Immunopathology is to bring clinicians and pathologists up-to-date on developments in the field of immunopathology.For this purpose topical issues will be organized usually with the help of a guest editor.Recent developments are summarized in review articles by authors who have personally contributed to the specific topic.
