Abstract excerpt
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) regulates cellular responses to hypoxia. Overexpression of HIF-1α is associated with abnormal placental trophoblast invasion and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. We evaluated the putative association between polymorphisms and haplotypes in parental and child HIF-1α genes and the risk of severe-spectrum hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Case (N = 179) and control...
