Association between the histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) C633T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and recurrent miscarriage was investigated in a case-control study. The cases constituted 187 women with recurrent miscarriage that were compared with 395 controls who had delivered a child and had no history of miscarriage. Blood samples were collected from each woman, genomic DNA was extracted and genotyped for the HRG C633T SNP. In the whole study population, the percentage of miscarriage was the same, regardless of genotype (C/C 31.2%, C/T 32.9% and T/T 32.5%). However, an association between homozygous T/T carriers and recurrent miscarriage was detected in a subgroup of women with primary recurrent miscarriage (odds ratio 2.44, 95% CI 1.01-5.92). Our results indicate an important role for the HRG C633T SNP in the occurrence of recurrent miscarriage.

Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is the occurrence of two or more consecutive miscarriages before 20 weeks of gestation. Recent research has increasingly focused on the role of oxidative stress in RPL, providing insights into its underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. Oxidative stress arises from an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and antioxidant defenses, leading to cellular damage and inflammation.

Background: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA), whose underlying cause has yet to be fully elucidated, is often classified as unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA). Promoting the differentiation of CD4 T cells into Tregs may be the key to prevent URSA. The differentiation of CD4 T cells was controlled by mTOR, but the regulatory mechanism is still unclear.

These infections can vertically transmit through the placental barrier, leading to complications in fetal development.

Haemolytic disease of the foetus and newborn (HDFN) due to Rhesus D (RhD) antigen mismatch between the mother and foetus has been a significant cause of neonatal jaundice, recurrent miscarriage and stillbirth throughout history. Anti-RhD prophylaxis using polyclonal immunoglobulin G (RhD-pIgG) derived from the plasma of RhD-negative donors immunised with RhD-positive red blood cells (RBCs), has reduced the incidence of HDFN, but this approach is currently restricted to developed countries. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) offer a promising alternative to address this pressing need, but prior attempts to develop effective anti-RhD mAbs have failed, in some cases due to differences in fucosylation patterns between mAbs produced in cell lines and RhD-pIgG.
