XForLife HLA-G Test

XForLife is a molecular test of the HLA-G gene which is involved in various pathological situations such as preeclampsia / gestosis and recurrent spontaneous abortions

Why is it useful to do XForLife HLA-G Test?

XForLife analyzes the HLA-G polymorphism (rs66554220, insertion / deletion of 14 bases), related to altered levels of protein expression, in order to prevent or reduce premature abortion with targeted therapeutic regimens.

XForLife HLA-G Test is performed on a peripheral blood sample, at the patient's home, using the tube present in the kit specifically provided.

Since the embryo genotype depends on both the father and the mother, to estimate the potential of the embryo to produce the HLA-G protein, the analysis of the rs66554220 polymorphism must be performed on both partners.

For the reporting of the Test there are 7 working days from when the biological sample arrives in the laboratory.
