Differential expression of angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2, and Tie receptors in placentas from pregnancies complicated by placenta accreta
Article Abstract:
A study to investigate the differential expression of angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2, and tie receptors (Tie-1 and Tie-2) in placentas from pregnancies complicated by placenta accreta was conducted. The results revealed that the participation of up-regulated angiopoietin-2 and down-regulated Tie-2 in the placental tissue indicated a role for the angiogenic factors in the development of placenta accreta.
