Adult bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that are
the subject of intense investigation in regenerative medicine. In addition, MSCs possess …

HLA-G is a nonclassical major histocompatibility complex class I molecule selectively expressed
on cytotrophoblasts at the feto–maternal interface, where it may play an important role …

Considering the well established role of nonclassical HLA-G class I molecules in inhibiting
natural killer (NK) cell function, the consequence of abnormal HLA-G expression in malignant …

The relevance of the nonclassical human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecule HLA-G in
human physiological and pathological contexts has been the center of intense investigation…

HLA-G plays an essential role in feto-maternal tolerance by inhibiting lysis by maternal NK
cells. The factors that allow tissue-specific activation of HLA-G gene expression in …

Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-G molecules are generated by an alternative splicing of the
primary transcript of the gene and display specialized function in regulating the immune …

Over the past few years, HLA-G, the non-classical HLA class I molecule, has been the center
of investigations that have led to the description of its specific structural and functional …

We have investigated the protective role of the membrane-bound HLA-G1 and HLA-G2
isoforms against natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity. For this purpose, HLA-G1 and HLA-G2 …

HLA-G is a molecule that was first known to confer protection to the fetus from destruction by
the immune system of its mother, thus critically contributing to fetal–maternal tolerance. The …

Human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G) is a nonclassic major histocompatibility complex (MHC)
class I molecule that functions as an immunomodulatory molecule capable of protecting …
