Abstract excerpt
To test the possibility that maternally expressed susceptibility genes for pre-eclampsia/eclampsia are closely linked to the HLA region on chromosome 6 of the human genome, members of ten pedigrees with multiple cases of these disorders were typed for HLA DR beta restriction fragment length polym...
