✦ Synopsis

Insights derived from recent studies employing rodent models demonstrate that the synthesis of pluripotent cytokines is an important function of resident cells in the female reproductive tract. Through steroid hormone regulated secretion of these mediators, resident cells appear to coordinate the recruitment and action of leukocytes that are centrally implicated in the dramatic remodelling processes characteristic of reproductive events.

## Abstract Cytokines, the polypeptide mediators of the immune system, were shown to exert numerous actions on endocrine functions. Bidirectional links based on the sharing of mediators and receptors between the immune and neuroendocrine systems lead to the concept of the immune—neuroendocrine syst

The past year has seen an avalanche in publications describing the synthesis of lymphohematopoietic cytokines by the uterus and placenta. Dissection of the particular contributions of these factors will require genetic as well as biochemical approaches. The major events of the year therefore, were t

In recent years, the secretion of immunoregulatory factors (cytokines) at the maternofetal interface in mammals has been widely documented. Although cytokine production seems to be a specific phenomenon in mammalian reproduction, the specific roles of these substances in different species are still
