Problem: Aging alters immune function in women and can lead increased risk of infections, particularly in the female reproductive tract (FRT).
Method Of Study: To determine how aging affects innate immune responses in the cervical stroma of the FRT, we isolated endocervical (CX) and ectocervical (ECX) stromal fibroblasts and determine if their expression of multiple pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and responses to viral stimulation varied with menopause and age.
Results: Constitutive expression of most PRRs did not vary with age or menopausal status in either cell type.
