Fig. 6From: TGF-β1 inhibits human trophoblast cell invasion by upregulating kisspeptin expression through ERK1/2 but not SMAD signaling pathwaySerum levels of TGF-β1 and kisspeptin are upregulated in patients. A and B Serum samples were collected from 25 PE patients and 25 normal pregnant women of similar age and gestational age. The age and gestational age of the included patients are presented (A). BMI, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured (B). C Serum levels of TGF-β1 were measured by ELISA. D Serum levels of KISS1 were measured by ELISA. The results are expressed as the mean ± SDBack to article page
