English abstract Recurrent miscarriage (RM) seriously affects the physical and mental health of women of childbearing age, and 50% of the causes are unknown. Thus, it is valuable to investigate the causes of unexplained recurrent miscarriage (uRM). Similarities between tumor development and embryo implantation make us realize that tumor studies are informative for uRM. The non-catalytic region of tyrosine kinase adaptor protein 1 (NCK1) is highly expressed in some tumors, and can promote tumor growth, invasion and migration. In this present paper, we firstly explore the role of NCK1 in uRM. We find that the NCK1 and PD-L1 are greatly reduced in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and decidua from patients with uRM. Next, we construct NCK1-knockdown HTR-8/SVneo cells, and find that NCK1-knockdown HTR-8/SVneo cells exhibit reduced proliferation and migration ability. Then we demonstrate that the expression of PD-L1 protein is decreased when the NCK1 is knocked down. In co-culture experiments with THP-1 and differently treated HTR-8/SVneo cells, we observe significantly increased proliferation of THP-1 in NCK1-knockdown group. In conclusion, NCK1 may be involved in RM by regulating trophoblast proliferation, migration, and regulating PD-L1-mediated macrophage proliferation at the maternal-fetal interface. Moreover, NCK1 has the potential to be a new predictor and therapeutic target
