VDR and preeclampsia: 2007; Holick et al. 2007; Jorde et al. 2012; Yang et al. 2015). However, studies in preeclampsia have been limited to only a few targeted SNPs in the VDR gene (Rezende et al. 2012; Zhan et al. 2015). This study further evaluated the potential associations between allelic variation in GC, CYP27B1, and VDR genes and preeclampsia risk using a systematic tagging SNP approach in two large, multi‐ethnic pregnancy cohorts.
