Low-molecular-weight heparin protects kidney through an anti-apoptotic mechanism in a rat pre-eclamptic model

LMWH can control PE conditions, protect renal function and improve fetal health. The mechanism of renal protection is likely to be related to the inhibitory effect of LMWH on apoptosis in kidney tissue. This study provides evidence that LMWH can potentially be used as a safe and effective anti-PE drug to improve PE conditions and protect renal function by inhibiting PE-induced apoptosis.
