Edema, proteinuria, hypertension (EPH)-gestosis, known also as preeclampsia, is the most common, pregnancy-associated pathological syndrome. It is accompanied by a significant increase in collagen content in the umbilical cord arteries and premature replacement of hyaluronic acid by sulfated
Pre-eclampsia is a serious multisystem disorder and causes significant increase in both maternal and foetal morbidity and perinatal mortality globally. Due to the limited understanding of the molecular mechanism of pre-eclampsia, the current study conducted bioinformatic analyses to screen key
BACKGROUND
Reduced placental perfusion predisposes to the maternal syndrome pre-eclampsia characterized by systemically reduced perfusion. Considerable data support the role of angiogenic factors in the development of the maternal syndrome. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1) mediates the cellular
Preeclampsia is the most common pathological syndrome associated with pregnancy. It is accompanied by remodelling of the extracellular matrix of the umbilical cord. A decrease of collagen content in the umbilical cord vein was described. This decrease may result from reduced collagen biosynthesis or
Preeclampsia, a pregnancy-specific syndrome characterized by hypertension, proteinuria and edema, is a major cause of fetal and maternal morbidity and mortality especially in developing countries. Bj-PRO-10c, a proline-rich peptide isolated from Bothrops jararaca venom, has been attributed with
Deviations from the normal program of gene expression during early pregnancy can lead to early embryonic loss as well as dysfunctional placentation, which can cause significant morbidity and mortality. Proline rich 15 (PRR15) is a low molecular weight nuclear protein expressed by the trophoblast
Edema, proteinuria, hypertension (EPH) gestosis is accompanied by an increase of collagen content and premature replacement of hyaluronic acid by sulfated glycosaminoglycans both in the umbilical cord arteries and in Wharton's jelly. The effect of EPH gestosis on elastin content and metabolism in
BACKGROUND
The pathogenesis of preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy disorder, is still elusive and its treatment empirical. Hypoxia Inducible Factor-1 (HIF-1) is crucial for placental development and early detection of aberrant regulatory mechanisms of HIF-1 could impact on the diagnosis and management
Preeclampsia presents serious risk of both maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Biomarkers for the detection of preeclampsia are critical for risk assessment and targeted intervention. The goal of this study is to screen potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of preeclampsia and to illuminate
DNA and protein synthesis have been studied in placental villi from normal and pathological cases by in vitro incorporation of tritiated thymidine or tritiated proline and subsequent counting or autoradiography. It appeared that cytotrophoblastic DNA synthesis continued until term and that it was
BACKGROUND
Preeclampsia/eclampsia is one of the major causes of maternal and fetal mortality in Nigeria and many other countries in sub-Saharan Africa. We determined if serum and urine concentrations of amino acids were abnormal in women with this disorder of pregnancy in Gombe,
The urotensinergic system was previously considered as being linked to numerous physiopathological states, including atherosclerosis, heart failure, hypertension, pre-eclampsia, diabetes, renal disease, as well as brain vascular lesions. Thus, it turns out that the actions of the urotensin II
