Several potential origins for increased UA levels include abnormal renal function, increased tissue breakdown, and increased activity of the enzyme Xanthine Oxidase (XO). The aim of the study was to determine serum levels of UA and XO not only in maternal serum, but also in umbilical vein (UV) and umbilical artery (UA) and explore their possible role in PE development.METHODSA prospective case-control pilot study was conducted in women who were found positive for PE with severe features, and had elevated UA levels above 6 mg/dL, with normotensive pregnant women serving as controls. Renal function, UA and XO levels were measured in maternal, UV and UA serums immediately after delivery. They were then compared between PE (n = 21) and control (n = 18) groups, as well as across all mediums (maternal, UV and UA) among the total study sample (N = 39). Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was also measured immediately following delivery.RESULTSThe mean serum maternal creatinine levels did not differ significantly between groups (0.65 ± 0.03 vs 0.6 ± 0.07, p = 0.13). Both mean maternal serum UA and XO concentrations were higher in PE group than in control (7.3 ± 1.2 vs 4.2 ± 0.9, p < 0.01 and 3.6 ± 3.5 Vs 1.7 ± 0.8, p < 0.01, respectively). The mean UV and UA serum XO concentrations were significantly higher in PE group compared to control (4.2 ± 3.6 vs 2.2 ± 1.4, p < 0.01 and 4.2 ± 3.6 vs 2.1 ± 1.5, p < 0.01, respectively). Polynomial fit correlation test demonstrated a significant association between maternal DBP and UV XO concentration for all the total study participants (p = 0.03).CONCLUSIONDespite preserved renal functions, UA and XO levels were elevated in women with PE. Importantly, this pattern was found to be applied to the feto-placental unit as well, which may indicate an active involvement of the fetus in the hypoxic process. Further study is needed to clarify the possible role of the feto-placental unit in pregnancies complicated by PE.","PeriodicalId":22921,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine","volume":"19 1","pages":"2399304"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142248931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
