Evidence that the Expression of Progesterone‐Induced Blocking Factor by Maternal T‐Lymphocytes Is Positively Correlated with Conception
1 Jul 1997
Abstract excerpt
PROBLEM: To compare the expression by T-lymphocytes of an immunomodulatory protein known as progesterone-induced blocking factor (PIBF) in conception versus non-conception cycles even when there has been definite fertilization and embryo formation. METHOD: PIBF expression on T lymphocytes was measured using an immunohistochemical method with a PIBF-specific polyclonal antibody. These levels were determined in...
