“…It is considered that the level of the HCG serum biomarker can also represent a placental marker. Retrospectively, the correlation between beta HCG and placental vascular disruption has been observed, so that the high level of beta HCG markers over 2.5 MOM can indicate a risk of preeclampsia (17,18). The increased level of free-beta HCG biomarkers is the result of placental trophoblast hyperplasia.…”

“…Various serum proteins are considered to contribute to the symptoms of PE, such as placental growth factor (PlGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (sVEGFR-1), soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1(sFlt-1), placental protein 13 (PP-13), pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A), human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG), soluble endoglin (sEng), alpha fetoprotein (AFP), insulin like growth factor-1 and IGF-binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) (Muller et al, 1996;Bersinger and Odegard, 2004;Audibert et al, 2005;Venkatesha et al, 2006;Baumann et al, 2007;Spencer et al, 2008;Teixeira et al, 2008). Various studies have shown that the expression levels of these proteins increase or decrease according to the disorder and its degree in PE (Baumann et al, 2007).…”

“…Several biomarkers and clinical characteristics have been evaluated as predictors of preeclampsia. Several studies have demonstrated an association between elevated second trimester maternal β-HCG and later development of Preeclampsia (Muller et al, 1996;Luckas et al, 1998;Walton et al, 1999).…”
