Melatonin-Attenuated Oxidative Stress in High-Risk Pregnant Women Receiving Enoxaparin and Aspirin.

Objective: In pregnancy, reducing inflammation and oxidative stress is important. Administration of melatonin during pregnancy can improve reproductive performance by improving the placental antioxidant system and inflammatory response. This investigation was carried out to evaluate the beneficial impact of melatonin on the oxidative stress state among high-risk pregnant women receiving enoxaparin and aspirin.

The role of leukemia inhibitory factor in pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia: molecular and cell signaling approach.

Endothelial dysfunction is considered as the main hallmark of Preeclampsia (PE). Despite the unknown pathogenesis of PE, different possible causes have been suggested in various studies. In this review, we first studied the Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) role in the related pathways to the PE pathogenesis, such as inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and hypertension.
