However, unexplained RIF is unique in that its underlying cause remains largely unknown, posing a challenge for both clinicians and patients. We performed single\u2010cell RNA sequencing and reported that the endometria of patients with unexplained RIF exhibited increased the proliferation and activation of cytotoxic CD8\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    T\u2010cells, which hinder embryo implantation. Additionally, the glandular epithelium, which has the highest metabolic activity, showed abnormal glycolysis and reduced lactate production in RIF. Specifically, the endometrial expression of genes associated with glucose uptake (\n                    <jats:italic>SLC2A1<\/jats:italic>\n                    ), glucose metabolism (\n                    <jats:italic>ALDOA<\/jats:italic>\n                    ), lactate production (\n                    <jats:italic>LDHA<\/jats:italic>\n                    ), and lactate output (\n                    <jats:italic>SLC16A3<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) were lower in the patients with unexplained RIF than in the controls. Through uterine horn injection experiments in mice, we demonstrated that inhibiting lactate production in the endometrium prevents embryo implantation and that this effect could be reversed by lactate supplementation. Moreover, lactate inhibitors did not affect implantation in mice with CD8\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    T\u2010cells depletion.

We propose that the endometria of patients with unexplained RIF fail to establish proper immune balance toward the embryo, likely due to abnormal glycolysis and reduced lactate production in the
