Search for an association between V249I and T280M CX3CR1 genetic polymorphisms, endothelial injury and preeclampsia: the ECLAXIR study.
<h4>Background</h4>Preeclampsia and coronary-artery disease share risk factors, suggesting common pathophysiological mechanisms. CX3CR1/CX3CL1 mediates leukocyte migration and adhesion and has been implicated in the pathophysiology of several inflammatory diseases. M280/I249 variants of...
