OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the influence that Fas and Fas ligand gene polymorphisms might have on preeclampsia. The pathogenesis of preeclampsia is still enigmatic and several studies have proposed that it may, in part, be determined by genetic susceptibility. Therefore, the identification of a gene polymorphism associated with an increased risk of preeclampsia might well represent a useful tool in the...
