  • Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious pregnancy condition linked to high maternal and fetal health risks, possibly caused by imbalances in key biological factors.
  • This study aimed to explore how levels of serum apelin, an important protein, relate to inflammation, oxidative stress, and blood vessel growth in a rat model of PE and whether administering apelin could offer protection against the condition.
  • Researchers used different groups of pregnant rats, with some receiving an agent to induce PE and others receiving apelin; they measured various health indicators, including blood pressure and protein levels in urine, to assess the condition's impact.
