Abstract excerpt
This study determined whether genetic variability in exons 3 and 4 of the microsomal epoxide hydrolase gene jointly modifies individual preeclampsia risk. The study also determined whether genetic variability in the gene encoding for microsomal epoxide hydrolase (EPHX) contributes to individual differences in susceptibility to the development of preeclampsia. The study involved 133 preeclamptic and 115 healthy...
