Elevated levels of hypoxia‐inducible microRNA‐210 in pre‐eclampsia: new insights into molecular mechanisms for the disease

Abstract excerpt

Pre-eclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Insufficient uteroplacental oxygenation is believed to be responsible for the disease. However, what molecular events involve in hypoxic responses and how they affect placental development remain unclear. Recently, miRNAs have emerged as a new class of molecules in response to hypoxia. We show here that the expression of...
