RBCs contribute to elevated levels of EETs in the fetoplacental circulation. EETs may modulate systemic and fetoplacental hemodynamics in normal and preeclamptic pregnancies. Decreased renal EET generation may be associated with the development of maternal renal dysfunction and hypertension in preeclampsia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
