Leukocytes in the female reproductive tract actively engage in extensive maternal adaptations that are imperative for embryo implantation, placental development, and fetal growth\u00a0support. \u03b3\u03b4 T cells are abundant at many mucosal sites in the body, where they provide protection against pathogens and cancer, and have roles in tissue renewal and homeostasis. In this review, we summarize studies in humans and rodents showing that \u03b3\u03b4 T cells are prevalent in the female reproductive tract and fluctuate in response to hormone changes across the reproductive\u00a0cycle. Emerging evidence points to a link between changes in their abundance and molecular repertoire in the uterus and pregnancy disorders including recurrent miscarriage and preterm birth. However, defining the precise functional role of female reproductive tract \u03b3\u03b4 T cells and understanding their physiological significance in reproduction and pregnancy have remained elusive. Here, we critically analyze whether reproductive tract \u03b3\u03b4 T cells could be active participants in reproductive events\u2014or whether their principal function is immune defense, in which case they may compromise pregnancy success unless adequately regulated.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/discim\/kyae004","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,25]],"date-time":"2024-04-25T11:42:04Z","timestamp":1714045324000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Gamma
