Outline of Final Research Achievements

Pregnancy Induced Hypertension (PIH) is perinatal complications that result in poor outcome and subsequent complications for mothers or babies. For the prediction of onset of PIH, we attempted the development of a new PIH onset prediction marker by focusing on cervical mucus. Oxidative stress proteins were measured in the cervical mucus, however, no significant results were obtained. One of the causes of PIH is reduced infiltration of trophoblastic cell . It was confirmed that the initial infiltration of villus cells was controlled by uPA system, including serine protease and low-oxygen environment.
