Article Synopsis
- Allelic variations in the maternal renin-angiotensin system may influence the risk of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, like preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction.
- A study analyzed common genetic variants in angiotensin II receptor genes (AT1R and AT2R) to examine their association with early-onset preeclampsia (EOP) in 84 affected women versus 84 controls.
- Results indicate that women with three mutant receptor genotypes were significantly more common in the EOP group, suggesting potential clinical applications for predicting susceptibility and guiding treatment research.
