First-trimester maternal tryptophan metabolites, utero-placental (vascular)development and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy: The Rotterdam periconceptional cohort
Background
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are a significant cause of maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity. Knowledge on the placenta-related pathophysiology of HDP is increasing. Since maternal tryptophan metabolites are involved in placentation, we investigated associations between first-trimester tryptophan metabolites and utero-placental (vascular) development, and the occurrence of HDP.
Methods
911 women were included from a prospective tertiary hospital cohort. Serum tryptophan metabolites were determined at 8.1 ± 1.4 weeks gestation. Placental volume (PV) and utero-placental vascular volume (uPVV) were determined at 7, 9 and 11 weeks gestation. HDP, including hypertension in early pregnancy, gestational hypertension, and preeclampsia, were retrieved from medical records. Associations with PV- and uPVV-trajectories were assessed using mixed models, and HDP risks were estimated by logistic regression models, adjusted for confounders. A mediation analysis was performed to evaluate whether blood pressure was a mediator in the associations with utero-placental (vascular) development.
Results
A negative association between kynurenine and PV-trajectories was found (β = −0.129, 95%CI = −0.220 to –0.039), which was not mediated by blood pressure. No significant associations between other tryptophan metabolites and PV- and uPVV-trajectories were observed. Higher 5-hydroxytryptophan was associated with hypertension in early pregnancy (OR = 1.405, 95%CI = 1.210–1.681), and with an increased risk of preeclampsia in these women. No associations between tryptophan metabolites and other HDP were found.
Conclusions
Higher first-trimester kynurenine concentrations were associated with impaired utero-placental (vascular) development. Higher first-trimester 5-hydroxytryptophan concentrations were associated with early pregnancy hypertension, and an increased risk of preeclampsia, indicating its clinical potential as biomarker for future prediction, prevention and treatment of HDP.
期刊介绍:
Placenta publishes high-quality original articles and invited topical reviews on all aspects of human and animal placentation, and the interactions between the mother, the placenta and fetal development. Topics covered include evolution, development, genetics and epigenetics, stem cells, metabolism, transport, immunology, pathology, pharmacology, cell and molecular biology, and developmental programming. The Editors welcome studies on implantation and the endometrium, comparative placentation, the uterine and umbilical circulations, the relationship between fetal and placental development, clinical aspects of altered placental development or function, the placental membranes, the influence of paternal factors on placental development or function, and the assessment of biomarkers of placental disorders.
