Abstract
Sildenafil citrate reduces the plasma levels of anti-angiogenic factors, sFlt-1 and sEng, in pre-eclamptic (l-NAME induced) Sprague-Dawley rats and may therefore be responsible for the reduction in blood pressure and proteinuria as well as the improved fetal outcomes noted in an earlier study.
