1 RESULTS: A novel finding was that ET-1 correlated to PO2 in amniotic fluid. PO-2 endothelin 1 Homo sapiens
2 High EPO values, similarly to ET-1, correlated to low pO2 values. PO-2 endothelin 1 Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that ET-1 levels may be a marker for short-term hypoxia, but not for fetal growth, since ET-1 in amniotic fluid was correlated to PO2 at the time of cordocentesis, but not to birth weight. PO-2 endothelin 1 Homo sapiens
