Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHypoxia-Inducible Factor 1α Expression in Chorionic Tissue and Decidua of Women with Spontaneous Abortion at the First Trimester of PregnancyE. V. Mashkina, K. A. Kovalenko, E. V. ButenkoOxygen-regulated genes expression has important role in pre-implantation embryonic metabolism regulation. Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF) regulated by hypoxia oxygen tension is crucial for placenta development. But the data about its role in spontaneous abortion is very poor. Thus, we aimed to determine an expression level of HIF-1α in chorionic tissue and decidua at pregnancy. Samples of chorionic tissue and decidua … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 18 Nov 2014 · 6,862 accessesView PDFCite
