There was a decrease in proapoptotic proteins such as p53 and BCL2-associated X and an increase in antiapoptotic proteins such as B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) in term preeclamptic syncytiotrophoblast mitochondria compared with the increase in the BAX/BLC2 ratio in preterm preeclampsia [39]. Here, BCL2 is linked to preeclampsia.
