normal pregnancy and RSA (P=0.0250).Compared with women with normal pregnancy, those with RSA showed significantly decreased levels of Arg-1 ( P=0.0474) and suppressed activities of MDSCs against CD8+T cell proliferation (P=0.0230).Conclusion The MDSCs might play an important role in the main-tenance of maternal immune tolerance.Decreased number and inhibited function of MDSCs in the peripheral blood of women with RSA might be responsible for the development of RSA.
