About this document
Maternal KIR and Fetal HLA-C Genes by Zakkiyatus Zainiyah is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study investigates how maternal KIR and fetal HLA-C gene combinations affect the risk of preeclampsia and reproductive success. It finds that mothers with the AA KIR genotype are at a significantly higher risk of preeclampsia when the fetus has HLA-C2, indicating a physiological rather than immune role in placental development. The findings suggest that these genetic interactions may have influenced the evolution of human HLA-C and KIR polymorphisms.
