Progress in research of hypoxia inducing factor-1, vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptor family with hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy / 中华地方病学杂志

ABSTRACT

Hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy is a special disease during pregnancy,and it is the key reason for rising death rate of maternal and perinatal infants.Its etiology and pathogenesis are not yet fully elucidated.It is generally accepted that placenta damage plays a central role in hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy.In recent years,studies have shown that hypoxia inducing factor-1 (HIF-1),vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)and its receptor family are important regulatory factors associated with hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy.In this article,we discussed the relationship between the two factors and hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy.
