Lower concentration of proinflammatory cytokines in idiopathic RPL women compared to fertile women might suggest the exhaustion of the immune system. The emphasized production of IL-10 by SC partially explains the previously observed downregulation of NK cell activity in RPL patients. The immunomodulatory effect of the drug might be utilized in anti-inflammatory therapies and help achieve positive pregnancy outcomes in women with reproductive failure due to a Th1/Th2 imbalance.
