Mechanistic Underpinnings of Preeclampsia
- Conditions
- Preeclampsia
- Registration Number
- NCT06567899
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Arizona
- Brief Summary
Preeclampsia is a dreadful disease with significant morbidity and mortality. Despite decades of research, we still need a proper diagnostic test or therapeutic option to treat this disorder. The proposed study will determine the diagnostic value of PBMC-secreted sFlt1 and determine the molecular mechanisms involved in its secretion. The molecular mechanisms can be novel therapeutic targets to treat this disorder.
