Article Title: Oxidative stress-induced impairment of trophoblast function causes preeclampsia through the unfolded protein response pathway

doi: 10.1038/s41598-021-97799-y

Figure Lengend Snippet: Graphical representation showing OS mediated molecular pathogenesis in preeclampsia where reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated as an outcome of ischemia–reperfusion injury at the feto-maternal compartment originating due to shallow invasion of trophoblast cells. This leads to an inadequate remodeling of uterine spatial arteries, hypoxia as well as an abnormal trophoblast invasion-differentiation program. ROS generation is found to induce oxidative stress leading to an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) injury and protein misfolding by engagement of unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway. Image was drawn by IM and SB.
