Cell‐free mRNA concentrations of CRH, <i>PLAC1</i>, and selectin‐P are increased in the plasma of pregnant women with preeclampsia

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To compare mRNA concentrations of corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH), placenta specific-1 (PLAC1), and selectin-P in preeclamptic and normal pregnancies. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 43 pregnant women with preeclampsia and 41 control subjects. Plasma was harvested from samples and RNA extracted. Plasma RNA was analyzed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction...
