Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) is a non-classical class I HLA molecule that is expressed by extravillous cytotrophoblast cells. This protein may play a critical role in the protection of...
Progesterone regulates HLA-G gene expression through a novel progesterone response element (2006)
Yie, Shang-mian, Xiao, Rong, Librach, Clifford L.
BACKGROUND: We have previously demonstrated that progesterone has a stimulatory effect on HLA-G gene expression. Because this effect was abolished by the anti-progestin, RU486, we hypothesize that...

BACKGROUND: Evidence suggests that HLA-G plays a critical role in maternal immune tolerance to the fetus. However, regulation of HLA-G gene expression is not well understood. Many studies have...
