Article Synopsis
- - Preeclampsia (PE) is a complex pregnancy disorder characterized by high blood pressure and protein in urine, posing risks to mothers and their babies; its underlying mechanisms involve abnormal placentation and systemic responses.
- - The condition is driven by inadequate placental development, leading to hypoxia and the release of anti-angiogenic factors, which cause endothelial dysfunction and increased inflammation; genetic factors also play a crucial role.
- - Despite some promising therapeutic strategies targeting oxidative stress and inflammation, effective prevention and treatments for PE are still lacking, emphasizing the need for ongoing research in understanding and managing the disorder.
