Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Leptin plays an important role in energy homeostasis. There is polymorphism on the leptin (LEP) gene. Our aim was to compare the tetranucleotide repeat (TTTC)(n) polymorphism in the 3'-flanking region in the LEP gene on DNA samples from patients with pre-eclampsia (PE), hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet (HELLP) syndrome and healthy pregnant controls. METHODS: Blood samples were...
