Is the atherosclerotic phenotype of pre-eclamptic placentas due to altered lipoprotein concentrations and placental lipoprotein receptors?: role of a small-for-gestational-age phenotype. Journal of Lipid Research, 54, https://doi.org/10.1194/jlr.M036699

Artherosis of spiral arteries in uteroplacental beds from pre-eclamptic women resemble those of atherosclerosis, characterised by increased plasma lipids and lipoproteins. We hypothesised 1) lipoproteins receptors/transporter in placenta would be up-...

Thyroid hormones and their placental deiodination in normal and pre-eclamptic pregnancy (2013)
Journal Article
Kurlak, L., Mistry, H., Kaptein, E., Visser, T., & Broughton Pipkin, F. (2013). Thyroid hormones and their placental deiodination in normal and pre-eclamptic pregnancy. Placenta, 34(5), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.placenta.2013.02.009

Pre-eclampsia is associated with lower serum selenium concentrations and glutathione peroxidase expression/activity; total thyroid hormones are also lower.
Objectives, study design and main outcome measures: We hypothesised that the placental seleno... Read More about Thyroid hormones and their placental deiodination in normal and pre-eclamptic pregnancy.
