(2017)
Background/aim: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is defined as two or more pregnancy losses. T-regulatory cells play an important role in the feto-maternal interface. Cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is a molecule ...
Association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene variants (-786 T>C, intron 4 b/a VNTR and 894 G>T) with idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss: A case-control study with haplotype and in silico analysis
(2017)
Objective(s) Many lines of evidence suggest that reduced production of nitric oxide (NO) due to single nucleotide polymorphisms in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene may affect the implantation and maintenance ...
