Human placental renin–angiotensin system in normotensive and pre-eclamptic pregnancies at high altitude and after acute hypoxia–reoxygenation insult
(2016)
Journal Article
A functioning placental renin–angiotensin system (RAS) appears necessary for uncomplicated pregnancy and is present during placentation, which occurs under low oxygen tensions. Placental RAS is increased in pre-eclampsia (PE), characterised by placen...
