}Mammary serine protease inhibitor (maspin; also known as serpin family B member 5 (SERPINB5)) plays a vital role in regulating the biological functions of extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells, but the mechanism remains unclear. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) C is a signature angiogenic molecule expressed and secreted by first-trimester trophoblasts, and bioinformatics analyses has revealed upregulation of VEGFC in pre-eclampsia. The aim of this study was to explore whether maspin…
