Angiotensin 2 Receptor (AT2R) Expression/Activation in Endothelial Cells in Preeclampsia
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The investigators will collect omental tissue (research surgical excision) and placental tissue (standard of care clinical delivery) from both preeclamptic and non-preeclamptic women during their c-section and use these samples to study the blood vessels, specifically the expression/activation of the AT2R.
