Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy specific disease characterized by hypertension and proteinuria. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Zinc finger E-box binding homologous box 2 (ZEB2) on PE mice and on placental trophoblast cells, as well as to elucidate its role in Wnt/β-Catenin pathway.
Methods: The PE mice models were established through L-NAME administration.
Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is characterized by the onset of hypertension and proteinuria during pregnancy. Here, we aimed to explore the functions of nuclear receptor-interacting protein 1 (NRIP1) in PE mice and human placental JEG-3 cells. We evaluated its effects on JEG-3 cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and inflammatory response and regulation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

The aim of our study was to identify the effects of protein phosphatase 2 regulatory subunit B α (PPP2R2A) on MSCs and ascertain its latent role in the progression of PE.
