Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) gene polymorphism and expression in pre-eclampsia
1 Apr 1996
Abstract excerpt
Pre-eclampsia is an endothelial disorder and TNF-alpha has fundamental effects on endothelial cells by several means, including altering the balance between oxidant and anti-oxidant, changing the pattern of prostaglandin production and affecting expression of several cell surface components.
