Abstract
HLA-G is a nonclassical major histocompatibility complex class I molecule s electively expressed on cytotrophoblasts at the fetal-maternal interface, w here it plays a role in maternofetal tolerance. In this review, attempts we re made to summarize the current state of knowledge of the effects of HLA-G on both natural killer cell and T cell functions and their implications in transplantation.
