Abstract

This article explains why we have had to come to a central role for innate immunity rather than the threat of maternal rejection of the foetal allograft. We encompass briefly the role of inflammation in implantation, not only for invasion adhesion, but also to prepare future "tolerance". In this context, we envisage the role of TWEAK and complement.
