Abstract
The paper gives current views of the role of immune mechanisms, particularly innate immunity factors that contribute to the formation and development of normal pregnancy and participate in the pathogenesis of pregnancy complications. Based on the data available in the literature and their own studies, the authors consider the immunological aspects of pregnancy complications, such as recurrent miscarriage and preeclampsia, and those associated with infectious and autoimmune processes. Whether immunological assays can be used to diagnose and predict impairments in normal pregnancy is analyzed.
