DOI: 10.1016/j.jri.2016.07.002
Abstract: Tissue homeostasis in the female genital tract is challenged by infection, damage, and even physiological events during reproductive cycles. We propose that the evolutionarily ancient system of innate immunity is sufficient to sense and respond… read more here.
