  • Title: Shared HLA antigens between parents and recurrent spontaneous abortion.
    Author: Balasch J, Pastor M, Martorell J, Vanrell JA, Cuturi C, González-Merlo J.
    Journal: Int J Fertil; 1986; 31(3):213-7. PubMed ID: 2875962.
    Abstract:
    Ten couples with a history of at least three (mean 3.8) consecutive spontaneous abortions of unknown etiology and 57 normal fertile couples (means 2.6 children) were tested for HLA antigens. The frequencies of shared HLA-A, -B and -DR antigens among members of the couples were similar in both groups. Our results, as well as analysis of the data in the literature, contradict HLA antigens sharing between parents as a determinant of recurrent spontaneous abortion.
