Altered Immune Response and Implantation Failure in Progesterone-Induced Blocking Factor-Deficient Mice.

abstract：:Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is used as replacement therapy in patients with antibody deficiencies and at higher dosages in immune-mediated disorders. Although different mechanisms have been described in vitro, the in vivo immunomodulatory effects of IVIG are poorly understood. Different studies have suggested th...
