Maternal, fetal and placental selectins in women with pre-eclampsia: association with the renin-angiotensin-system (2020)
Journal Article
Mistry, H. D., Ogalde, M. V. H., Pipkin, F. B., Escher, G., & Kurlak, L. O. (2020). Maternal, fetal and placental selectins in women with pre-eclampsia: association with the renin-angiotensin-system. Frontiers in Medicine, 7, https://doi.org/10.3389/fmed.2020.00270

Selectins [endothelial (E), platelet (P), and leucocytes (L)] are a class of cell adhesion molecules, stimulated in response to inflammation. Pre-eclampsia is characterized by inflammation, and angiotensin II is pro-inflammatory. We hypothesized that...

The Differential Expression of ERAP1/ERAP2 and Immune Cell Activation in Pre-eclampsia (2020)
Journal Article
Stratikos, E., Warthan, M., Strauss, J. F., Kurlak, L. O., Seamon, K., Lee, E. D., & Mistry, H. D. (2020). The Differential Expression of ERAP1/ERAP2 and Immune Cell Activation in Pre-eclampsia. Frontiers in Immunology, 11, Article 396. https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2020.00396

Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a disorder of pregnancy, often leading to serious and fatal complications. Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 and 2 (ERAP1/ERAP2) are present in the placenta. They are involved in processes regulating blood pressure, angioge... Read More about The Differential Expression of ERAP1/ERAP2 and Immune Cell Activation in Pre-eclampsia.

A pilot study of alterations in oxidized angiotensinogen and antioxidants in pre-eclamptic pregnancy (2020)
Journal Article
Dahabiyeh, L. A., Tooth, D., Kurlak, L. O., Mistry, H. D., Pipkin, F. B., & Barrett, D. A. (2020). A pilot study of alterations in oxidized angiotensinogen and antioxidants in pre-eclamptic pregnancy. Scientific Reports, 10(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-58930-7

© 2020, The Author(s). The oxidation status of angiotensinogen (AGT) may have a critical role in pre-eclampsia. We used a validated, quantitative, mass spectrometry-based method to measure the oxidized and total AGT levels in plasma of pre-eclamptic...
