P-145: Role of Human Leukocyte Antigen in Miscarriage

Background: During pregnancy, the maternal immune system is in close contact with cells and tissue from the semiallogenic fetus .The human leucocyte antigen (HLA) class Ib molecules, HLA-E, -F and -G, are expressed at the materno-fetal interface. Because of the apparent immunoregulatory functions of these proteins, they may be involved in successful acceptance of the semi-allogenic fetus during...

Phaseolus vulgaris isolectin binding to human erythrocytes.

The Phaseolus vulgaris isolectins L4,L3E1, L2E2, L1E3, and E4 were isolated by affinity and ion exchange chromatography. Pure isolectins were radiolabeled by the chloramine-T method with Na125IO4 and their binding to human erythrocytes was studied. A normal erythrocyte has approximately 8 times 10(5) receptor sites for each isolectin; however, the association constants (Ka) of binding increased...

Adherence of Ureaplasma urealyticum to human erythrocytes.

Ureaplasma urealyticum (four serotypes and two clinical isolates) were metabolically labeled with radioactive methionine to a high specific activity. Labeling allowed the study of the mechanism of adherence to human erythrocytes. The adherence mechanism was complex and partially mediated by proteinaceous surface components. The binding sites on the erythrocytes were partially sensitive to neura...
