    Author: Bielecki DA, Klonowska-Dziatkiewicz E, Jarocki S, Urban J.
    Journal: Ginekol Pol; 2002 May; 73(5):422-9. PubMed ID: 12185701.
    Abstract:
    The aim of the study was to determine the concentrations of TGF-beta, PDGF and VEGF growth factors in peripheral blood. The examinations were carried out in the group of pregnant women with preeclampsia. The results were compared to those obtained in a control group of healthy pregnant women. The statistically significant increase in all examined growth factors was observed in women with preeclampsia in comparison to healthy women. The results suggest that growth factors may play an important role in etiology and pathophysiology of preeclampsia.
