Abstract

Objective. To define the significance of serum erythropoietin and its placental expression in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Subjects and methods. The case-control study enrolled 11 women without preeclampsia, 14 with moderate preeclampsia, and 14 with severe preeclampsia. The specific features of pregnancy and delivery were analyzed and production adequacy of erythropoietin and its placental expression were determined. Results. Cases of inadequate erythropoietin production were registered in preeclampsia, more commonly in severe one. The adequacy of erythropoietin production was lower in severe preeclampsia. The inadequate production of erythropoietin correlates with its enhanced placental expression in the symplastotrophoblast, capillary endothelium, and villous stromal macrophages with its decreased expression in the red blood cells of villous capillaries. The correlations of the indicators of erythropoietin status in pregnant women with obstetric complications (preeclampsia, placental insufficiency) are suggestive of the similar mechanisms of their development. A scheme of the involvement of erythropoietin in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia is proposed. Conclusion. Erythropoietin takes part in the pathogenesis of a number of obstetric complications, including preeclampsia; however, the significance of erythropoietin in the development of this abnormality calls for further investigation. The authors declare no conflicts of interest.
