Analysis KIR/HLA-C
Immunogenetics of infertility
The analysis of maternal KIR genes array together and specific polymorphic HLA-C gene variants of both members of a couple may allow to evaluate the risk of potential pregnancy disorders (repeated abortion and implantation failure, preeclampsia) and identify a potential cause of idiopathic infertility.
In medically assisted procedures (MAP), the analysis of KIR / HLAC epitopes also makes it possible to greatly increase the chances of embryo implantation and full-term pregnancy in couples at greater risk of reproductive failure with the choice of gamete HLA-C donors compatible in heterologous cycles.
The IRG is the only genetic laboratory in Italy carrying out the typing of KIR /HLA-C genes for over six years, with personalized counseling pre and post analysis.
