20 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
Early-onset preeclampsia (EOPE) with fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a severe hypertensive disorder of pregnancy characterized by placental dysfunction and estrogen deficiency. Based on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) profiling of specific placental trophoblast subtypes from EOPE-FGR and normotensive pregnancies, we identified HSD17B1, which encodes a key enzyme mediating estradiol conversion, as the...
