Immunomodulation and preeclampsia
Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2019Preeclampsia (PE) is an enigmatic syndrome, still with unknown aetiology and multi-factorial pathogenesis. Our understanding of the role of the immune system in PE development has undergone a transformation over the years. From a model based on the alterations in cell-mediated immunity, research moved on to a vision centred on the alteration of the ...

ABSTRACT. Twenty‐one preeclamptic women had increased venous plasma‐free adrenaline (45 ± 5 vs 27 ± 2 pg/ml, mean ± SE, P < 0.01) and plasma‐free dopamine (137 ± 25 vs 55 ± 6 pg/ml, P < 0.01) compared with fifteen normotensive pregnant women. Plasma renin activity (P < 0.001) and aldosterone concentration (P <0.02) were depressed in the ...
