The results indicated that compared with the control group, endometrium from women with adenomyosis had a higher proportion of CD56dim natural killer cells, monocytes, T helper 17 (Th17) cells and memory B-cell but a lower proportion of activated CD4 T-cell, activated CD8 T-cell, gamma-delta T-cell, T helper two cells, and effector memory CD4 T-cell (Figure 6B). This evidence concerns the gene CD8A and adenomyosis.
