Do receptors for non-MHC ligands contribute to uterine natural killer cell activation during pregnancy in mice?
In mice, activation of AHR and of NCR1 by endogenous, as yet undefined ligands, contributes to uNK cell activation/maturation and angiogenic functions during early to mid-gestation pregnancy. MHC-independent activation of uNK cells also likely makes critical contributions to human pregnancy success.
The computerized display of charges had no statistically significant effect on the number of clinical laboratory tests or radiological procedures ordered or performed, although small trends were present for clinical laboratory tests. More intensive interventions may be needed to affect physician test utilization.
