title: Placental protein 5 in fetal and maternal compartments.
abstract: Placental protein 5 is produced by the syncytiotrophoblast and secreted into the maternal peripheral circulation reaching levels of approximately 30 micrograms per litre in normal pregnancy at term. In the present study the distribution of PP5 was examined in maternal and fetal compartments in 13 patients at delivery.
