Role of GRK2 in Trophoblast Necroptosis and Spiral Artery Remodeling: Implications for Preeclampsia Pathogenesis

Impaired invasion of extravillous trophoblasts and severe oxidative stress manifest the poor placentation in preeclampsia, which is life-threatening and more than a hypertensive disease of pregnancy. Previous studies have reported that G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) play a key role in ini...
