Hypertension: A new genetic clue to unravel the origins of pre-eclampsia

Nature Reviews Nephrology, Published online: 4 September 2017; doi:10.1038/nrneph.2017.116

Pre-eclampsia is a common disorder of pregnancy for which the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. A genome-wide association study has now identified a pre-eclampsia susceptibility locus located near the FLT1 gene. This study brings us a step closer to dissecting the underlying causes of pre-eclampsia.

子痫前期是一种常见的妊娠疾病，对其潜在机制了解甚少。现在，全基因组关联研究已经确定了子痫前期易感基因座位于FLT1基因附近。这项研究使我们更接近剖析先兆子痫的根本原因。
