The pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia
Syncytiotrophoblast normally sheds redundant placental debris into the maternal circulation, a process, which depends on apoptosis. It is renewed from the underlying mononuclear cytotrophoblast. We propose that the continual clearance of this debris from the maternal circulation causes a systemic inflammatory response that is present in all pregnant ...
