Abstract

We sought serum biomarkers predictive of pre-eclampsia (PE).Sera obtained at 12-14 weeks of pregnancy from 24 cases who later developed PE and 24 controls with uncomplicated pregnancies were processed and analyzed using a serum proteomic approach.Many statistically significant serum PE biomarker candidates (n > 60) were found comparing cases and controls. In addition, logistic regression analysis modeled biomarker data resulted in 14 different multimarker combinations having high detection sensitivity and specificity (AUC >0.9).Developed panels of serum biomarkers appeared effective in identifying pregnant women at 12-14 weeks gestation at risk of PE later in their pregnancy.
