Summary: "Reproductive Immunology: Basic Concepts, Immune Cells and Reproduction provides an introduction to reproductive immunology, focusing on the immunological aspects of specific pregnancy complications. The book includes discussions on immune cells, cytokines and chemokines, along with other topics that are central to the success of a pregnancy, from the process of implantation to parturition. The knowledge on the role of immune cells and the inflammatory process in each step of reproduction has grown exponentially in the last 10 years.
