Abstract
We concluded that upregulation of sFlt-1 and unbalanced PlGF/VEGF production associated with increased oxidative stress are consequences of hypoxia in placental TCs. Our results suggest that placental TCs are major sources of sFlt-1 and VEGF levels in the maternal circulation in women with preeclampsia.
