Brief summary
Pre-eclampsia is one of the most threatening pregnancy complications. So far neither a secure, competent therapy for PE nor effective biomarkers for a premature discovery has been achieved.The aim of our study was to identify miRNAs 136, 494 and 495 genes expression in exosomes of peripheral blood compared to umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells conditioned media released exososomes in patients with PE, as valuable markers for PE early prediction.
