Analysis of HLA-G in Maternal Plasma, Follicular Fluid, and Preimplantation Embryos Reveal an Asymmetric Pattern of Expression
1 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
Soluble HLA-G (sHLA-G) secretion by human preimplantation embryos in culture has been associated with successful embryo development, and therefore has potential to serve as a noninvasive marker of embryo viability. We have examined the spatial and temporal expression of HLA-G in embryos of varying developmental competence and the role of maternal factors in human embryonic HLA-G expression. Embryos that reached...
