The fetus is semi-allograft to the matemal host; therefore, a system of tolerance must be present during pregnancy. Epidemiological findings support a relationship between pre-eclampsia and the failure of tolerance induction. For induction of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-specific tolerance, long-term exposure to seminal fluid, which contains paternal soluble MHC class I antigens, may induce paternal MHC class I-specific tolerance. Furthermore, soluble HLA-G1, which induces the deletion of CD8(+) T-cells, and the combination of maternal killer-immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) on NK cells and fetal HLA-C, which affects the balance between inhibition and activation signals of NK cells, regulatory CD8(+) T cells, and regulatory NK cells, may play very important roles in the induction of MHC class I-specific tolerance. On the other hand, exposure to sperm, which express paternal HLA-DR, and trophoblastic debris, which contain intracellular fetal HLA-DR, may induce paternal MHC class II-specific tolerance. In this process, CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T (Treg)-cells play central roles. In this review, we discuss the relationship between the risk of pre-eclampsia and tolerance induction.
