Impaired functional capacity of fetal endothelial cells in preeclampsia
OBJECTIVES Preeclampsia is one of the main contributers to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality during pregnancy. A history of preeclampsia puts mother and offspring at an increased cardiovascular risk in later life. We hypothesized that at the time of birth functional impairments of fetal endothelial cells can be detected in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and that a therapeutic ...
متن کاملImpaired endothelial repair capacity of early endothelial progenitor cells in prehypertension: relation to endothelial dysfunction.
Prehypertension is a highly frequent condition associated with an increased cardiovascular risk. Endothelial dysfunction is thought to promote the development of hypertension and vascular disease; however, underlying mechanisms remain to be further determined. The present study characterizes for the first time the in vivo endothelial repair capacity of early endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) ...
متن کاملFetal DNA clearance from maternal plasma is impaired in preeclampsia.
BACKGROUND Increased fetal DNA in maternal plasma/serum has been reported in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia. We hypothesized that impaired clearance of fetal DNA might contribute, at least in part, to the above-mentioned phenomenon. METHODS We studied 7 preeclamptic and 10 control pregnant women. All had male fetuses. Serial blood samples were obtained from before delivery to 6 h pos...
متن کاملLipopolysaccharide impaired the functional activity of endothelial colony-forming cells.
BACKGROUND Recent studies have shown that endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) contribute to lung repair after lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lung injury and infusion of LPS decreased early EPCs in human peripheral blood. However, the effects of LPS on endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) remain to be determined. OBJECTIVE To investigate possible effects of LPS on the functional activity...
متن کاملInseparably tied: functional and antioxidative capacity of endothelial progenitor cells.
New blood vessel formation is required to increase blood supply to the myocardium or other tissues after critical ischemia. Capillary formation after ischemia can be achieved by the sprouting of preexisting vessels, a process named angiogenesis. However, in the last few years it has become evident that bone marrow–derived circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can contribute to and amp...
