Placental autotaxin expression is diminished in women with pre‐eclampsia

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a member of a new class of lipid mediators and exerts varied physiological and pathological functions. The secreted protein, autotaxin (ATX), is a key enzymatic determinant of local LPA production. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the potential involvement of the placental ATX–LPA system in pre‐eclampsia (PE).
