    Abstract : Preeclampsia is a major challenge to obstetricians, due to its impact on maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality and the lack of preventive and treatment strategies. The overall aim of this thesis is to increase the knowledge of the pathogenesis of preeclampsia including the role of inflammation, angiogenesis and coagulation, both locally at the fetomaternal interface and in the maternal circulation.

  7. 5. Endothelin and the regulation of peripheral and uteroplacental vascular tone during pregnancy

    Author : Gunilla Ajne; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Endothelin; pregnancy; uteroplacental blood flow; peripheral resistance; endothelin receptors;

    Abstract : The mechanism behind the vascular adaptation during pregnancy is poorly understood. The fall in peripheral resistance, particularly in the uterine vasculature, is crucial for sufficient increase in uteroplacental blood flow and thereby for normal fetal growth and development.
