Optimisation of high-resolution fluorescence microscopy of normal- and preeclamptic placentas
Knutsen, Kristine Marie Bakken (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-08-14)Preeclampsia (PE) affects 3-5 % of pregnant women and may lead to maternal and/or fetal death. The main theory of PE is placental ischemia, leading to a dysfunctional placenta and clinical signs as hypertension and proteinuria in the mother. The primary aim of the thesis was to implement and optimise a method for high-resolution microscopy of placental cryo-sections. Secondary aims were to compare ...
