Background: The immunologic factors are the chief reason for recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and induction of maternal-fetal tolerance is the main treatment for this cause of RPL, but the effect of this method is uncertainly and needs multiple doses and/or interventions. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a single administration of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) can improve the pregnancy outcomes of RPL mice and whether the improvement is cause by TGF-β1 driving the expression of immune tolerance molecule indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO).
Materials And Methods: In this experimental study, 40 RPL model mice were equally divided into a control group, that received 0.
