Beneficial effects of phycobiliproteins from Spirulina maxima in a preeclampsia model

Our results show that phycobiliproteins can prevent the damage produced by fetoplacental ischemia and provides evidence of free radical species contribution to the physiopathology of the disease. Also, we conclude phycobiliproteins can be an alternative to reduce preeclampsia manifestations, however, more studies are recommended.
