Decidual and placental ACE2 and TMPRSS2 expression in preeclampsia, preterm, and term pregnancies

The values of TPM were calculated by the number of mapped raw reads, the transcript’s length and sequencing depth. The TPM normalized reads count for ACE2 and TMPRSS2 was obtained from decidual (A) and placental (B) samples in preeclampsia (n=42), preterm (n=11), and term (n=14) pregnancies. Density plots (C and D) were constructed to examine the probability of available reads numbers. Histograms were embedded in the graphs to visualize the distribution of read counts.

ACE2, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2; TPM, transcripts per million; TMPRSS2, transmembrane protease serine 2.
