Potential role for nectin-4 in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia: a molecular genetic study

Abstract Background Nectins are cell adhesion molecules that play a pivotal role in adherens junctions and tight junctions. Our previous study using whole-genome oligonucleotide microarrays revealed that nectin-4 was upregulated in pre-eclamptic placentas. We investigated the role of nectin-4 in the...
