Fetal Microchimerism in Women with Breast Cancer

1 Oct 2007

Abstract excerpt

Fetal microchimerism (FMc) describes long-term persistence of small numbers of fetal-derived allogeneic cells in the mother. Although FMc has been implicated as a mechanism of autoimmune disease, it may confer a beneficial effect with immune surveillance of malignant cells. We hypothesized that allogeneic FMc imparts a protective effect against breast cancer. Two observations provided a rationale for the study...
