Among those, 8 were associated with gestational hypertension: C-C motif chemokine 4 (CCL4), cluster of differentiation 40 (CD40), eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), galectin-3 (Gal-3), kidney injury molecule 1 (KIM-1), matrix metalloproteinase 12 (MMP-12), N-terminal pro–brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2). This evidence concerns the gene NPPB and preeclampsia.
