Dysregulation of Angiopoietins Is Associated with Placental Malaria and Low Birth Weight

BACKGROUND: Placental malaria (PM) is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including low birth weight (LBW). However, the precise mechanisms by which PM induces LBW are poorly defined. Based on the essential role of angiopoietin (ANG)-1 and -2 in normal placental vascular development, we hypot...
