Article Synopsis
- The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, can affect pregnancy and fetal development, although vertical transmission is rare.
- Natural killer (NK) cells, crucial for fighting infections and maintaining pregnancy, were studied in pregnant women with COVID-19 to understand their characteristics and behavior.
- The study found that NK cell activity and levels were influenced by maternal estradiol and inflammatory cytokines, revealing potential impacts on newborns born to infected mothers.
