TIMP2 and nutritional disorder: In this study, we focused on the effect of iron deficiency on the secreted cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, leukocyte inhibitory factor, TGF-β), chemokines (IL-8, FKN), and other regulatory proteins (bone morphogenic protein 2, activin, follistatin, PR, SOX-17, prostaglandin E2 receptor, TIMP2), and the modifying effect of FKN on the expression of these proteins, which may improve endometrium receptivity.
