| Core Tip |
Gestational Hypertension (GHTN) can increase risk of fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Many environmental, nutritional and genetic factors are related to the development of GHTN. Among them, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) has been found to contribute to arterial hypertension. It is thus plausible that Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in EGFR gene would be associated with the development of GHTN in women with GDM. This pilot study indicated that EGFR rs17337023 polymorphism may not be involved in the pathophysiology of GHTN in GDM positive females in a local population. Further large-scale studies should explore SNPs in EGFR and other genes in this regard. |
