The Hidden Relationship between Intestinal Microbiota and Immunological Modifications in Preeclampsia Pathogenesis.

Preeclampsia is a multifactorial gestational syndrome characterized by increased blood pressure during pregnancy associated with multiorgan involvement. The impact of this disease on maternal and neonatal health is significant, as it can lead to various fetal comorbidities and contribute to the development of maternal comorbidities later in life. Consistent evidence has shown that the microbiota acts as a regulator of the immune system, and it may, therefore, influence the development of preeclampsia by modulating immune factors.
