Overexpression of miR-21 and miR-122 in preeclamptic placentas.
OBJECTIVE Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-associated disease with the impact of genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors. Increased apoptosis was observed in cells from preeclamptic placentas. MicroRNAs are involved in the regulation of apoptosis and are abundant in placenta. In this study, we focused on the analysis of differential gene expression of apoptosis-associated miRNAs in preeclampti...
متن کاملPregnancy Close to the Edge: An Immunosuppressive Infiltrate in the Chorionic Plate of Placentas from Uncomplicated Egg Cell Donation
In pregnancies achieved after egg donation (ED) tolerance towards a completely allogeneic fetus is mediated by several complex immunoregulatory mechanisms, of which numerous aspects are still unknown. A distinct lesion not described previously in the literature, was repeatedly found in the chorionic plate in a substantial portion of placentas from ED pregnancies, but never in placentas from nor...
متن کاملNF-κΒ and SOD expression in preeclamptic placentas.
BACKGROUND/AIM Preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal death in the developing world. Our aim was to quantify and compare messenger (mRNA) expression of nuclear factor-kappa beta (NF-κΒ) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in control patients with preeclampsia and without preeclampsia with or without familial hereditary background. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four groups of patients were formed depe...
متن کاملRole of peroxynitrite in altered fetal-placental vascular reactivity in diabetes or preeclampsia.
Oxidative stress may increase production of superoxide and nitric oxide, leading to formation of prooxidant peroxynitrite to cause vascular dysfunction. Having found nitrotyrosine residues, a marker of peroxynitrite action, in placental vessels of preeclamptic and diabetic pregnancies, we determined whether vasoreactivity is altered in these placentas and treatment with peroxynitrite produces v...
متن کاملEffects of calcium antagonists on contractions of chorionic arteries in normal and preeclampsia placenta.
This study was undertaken to observe the effects of organic or inorganic calcium antagonists and to investigate the involvement of cyclic nucleotides in regulating the vascular tone in the chorionic artery from normal or preeclamptic placenta. KCI and prostaglandin (PG) F2 alpha produced marked and constant contractions in chorionic arterial preparations of both normal and preeclamptic placenta...
