Change in Amniotic Fluid Levels of Multiple Anti-Angiogenic Proteins before Development of Preeclampsia and Intrauterine Growth Restriction
16 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: The cause of preeclampsia remains unknown. Excessive antiangiogenic proteins have been proposed to play a pathogenic role in preeclampsia. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to determine the differences in soluble endoglin (sEndoglin), soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase receptor-1 (sFLT1), leptin, adiponectin, and endothelin 1 concentrations between normal and preeclampsia amniotic fluid (AF). Such results may...
