| pubmed-article:1790607 | pubmed:abstractText | Fibronectin is a plasma glycoprotein which is involved in coagulation, platelet function, tissue repair and the vascular endothelial basement membrane. Increase of plasma fibronectin levels in pre-eclamptic patients have been previously reported. There have been no reports however regarding plasma fibronectin levels during post term pregnancy. A significant decrease of maternal plasma concentration of fibronectin was noticed during third trimester, at the time of delivery, and the third post partum day in post term pregnancies as compared to the concentrations found in normal pregnancies. | lld:pubmed |
