Recombinant pregnancy-specific glycoprotein-1-Fc reduces functional deficit in a mouse model of permanent brain ischaemia

The well-characterised role of the immune system in acute ischaemic stroke has prompted the search for immunomodulatory therapies. Pregnancy-specific glycoproteins (PSGs) are a group of proteins synthesised by placental trophoblasts which show immunomodulatory properties. The aim of this study was to determine whether a proposed PSG1-based therapeutic enhanced recovery in a mouse model of brain ischaemia and to explore possible immunomodulatory effects.
