Mucosal-Associated Invariant T Cells in Cases of Miscarriage

1- Decidual tissues will be washed in phosphate buffer saline (PBS), and then preserved in Rosewell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 medium supplemented with 100 U/mL penicillin, 100 mg/mL streptomycin and 5% fetal bovine serum (GIBCO BRL, Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) until transfer to the laboratory. At the flow cytometry laboratory, the tissue samples will be minced finely and enzymatically digested by adding 3 ml collagenase enzyme type Ia and 2 ml PBS for 40 minutes at 37°C in shaking water path at 100 r.p.m. Cell suspensions obtained will be filtered, then the pellet after centrifugation will be treated with red blood cells lysing solution and washed with PBS.
