Abstract excerpt
HLA-G is a nonclassical Class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) gene. This gene has a limited protein alteration that is produced by alternative splicing and can be important in the preservation of pregnancy. Recent findings suggest that alteration in HLA-G gene expression can lead to pregnancy failure, such as recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). As the promoter SNPs of the gene may impact the HLA-G expression...
