| Abstract: | Plasma acid phosphatase activity was measured in nonpregnant, normal pregnant, and severely pre-eclamptic women. The third trimester of pregnancy was associated with a rise in plasma acid phosphatase and severe pre-eclampsia with a marked rise in this enzyme. Possible sources of this elevation in acid phosphatase activity are the placenta, kidneys, pregnancy-associated plasma proteins, and blood platelets—with platelets the most likely. |
