Is a mutation in the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene associated with preeclampsia in women of southeast Mexico?
Our results suggest that C677T-MTHFR polymorphism is not an associated risk factor for developing preeclampsia in southeast Mexico. Results also confirmed high prevalence of C677T mutation in Mexico.
Matrigel does not form representative barriers to ovarian cancer cells in either 2D or 3D culture systems. Our findings support the use of collagen I rather than Matrigel as a matrix barrier for invasion studies to better approximate critical interactions and events associated with peritoneal metastasis.
