We aimed to measure maternal serum perlecan levels in different preeclampsia phenotypes. Methods: This study included 50 women with preeclampsia and 30 healthy pregnant women. Results: Serum perlecan levels were significantly higher (p = 0.016) in preeclamptic women with severe features(n = 23) than preeclampsia patients(n = 27). There were no statistically significant differences in serum perlecan levels between the early-onset preeclampsia(n = 25), late-onset preeclampsia(n = 25), and healthy pregnancies. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that preeclamptic women with severe features have higher serum perlecan levels than women with preeclampsia.EnglishMaternal serum perlecan levels in women with preeclampsiaArticle1525-6065
