Article Synopsis
- Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious pregnancy condition that occurs due to improper trophoblast cell invasion affecting blood circulation between the mother and fetus.
- CK2, an enzyme involved in cellular processes, was found to be more active during early pregnancy and its inhibition negatively impacted trophoblast cell functions essential for healthy development.
- The study observed that CK2 activity increases in placentas from PE patients and in PE mouse models, suggesting its role in supporting feto-maternal circulation, potentially indicating a compensatory response to the challenges in PE.
