Case-control study of a HLA-G 14-bp insertion-deletion polymorphism in women with recurrent miscarriages.

abstract：:We studied the inhibitory effect of a fraction of bovine seminal plasma on in vitro lymphocyte responses to specific and nonspecific ligands. Seminal plasma was fractionated by Sephadex G-100 chromatography, and the inhibitory component was found to have a molecular weight of above 100,000 daltons. This fraction was d...
