Association between HLA-G 14bp Gene Polymorphism and Serum sHLA-G Protein Concentrations in Preeclamptic Patients and Normal Pregnant Women

Abstract

Our results demonstrate that measurement of sHLA-G protein level may be helpful as a primary diagnosis for the pathogenesis of PE. Overall, this study suggests that the association between HLA-G 14 bp polymorphism and serum sHLA-G level in different ethnic populations of PE should be taken into consideration.
