Objective: Maspin is one of the members of serin protease inhibitor superfamily, and acts as a tumor suppressor protein. Here we report maspin expression in placental tissues of preeclampsia or intrauterine growth retardation pregnancies.Study Design: Maspin expression level was analyzed by semi-qua...
