Disentangling maternal pregnancy and fetal-specific plasma signatures through integrated proteomics and site-specific N-glycoproteomics

During pregnancy, mother and fetus co-exist albeit as two physiologically distinct individuals, connected through the placenta and the umbilical cord. This connection allows for the exchange of vital substances, while individual blood homeostasis remains intact. We hypothesized that comparing maternal and cord plasma (...
