The mechanisms may include the following pathways: [TGFB1 or TNFA]-[IL1B]-[pre-eclampsia]; [TNFA or INS]-[NOS3]-[pre-eclampsia]; [INS]-[HSPA4 or CLU]-[pre-eclampsia]; [ACE]-[MTHFR]-[pre-eclampsia].
None of the IL1B and IL1RN polymorphisms provided evidence for either association or linkage with the risk for (pre)eclampsia/HELLP syndrome, preeclampsia only or HELLP syndrome only.
