Comparative gene expression profiling of placentas from patients with severe pre-eclampsia and unexplained fetal growth restriction

摘要

BackgroundIt has been well documented that pre-eclampsia and unexplained fetal growth restriction (FGR) have a common etiological background, but little is known about their linkage at the molecular level. The aim of this study was to further investigate the mechanisms underlying pre-eclampsia and unexplained FGR.
