Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy specific syndrome and
is associated with vascular pathology which may affect
the lactogenesis. Proton NMR based metabolomics of milk
of PE mothers showed lower concentration of glycine and
glycerophosphocholine as compared to control women.
Glycine and glycerophosphocholine are known to be
associated with neurodevelopment of the infant and
alteration in levels of these metabolites may affect the
infants growth and particularly brain development.
