Test Code: KIRHLA
KIR and HLA-C Genotyping
Immunogenetics
Test assess the risk of embryo rejection. KIR and HLA-C genotyping assesses maternal-foetal immune compatibility. Differences between maternal killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes and foetal HLA-C alleles may increase the risk of abnormal immune responses, which can contribute to implantation failure, recurrent miscarriage, preeclampsia, or preterm birth.
