Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the levels of soluble forms of cell adhesion molecules (sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, sE-selectin, and sP-selectin) in the maternal blood of women with preeclampsia (PE) and compare them to levels in women with normal pregnancies, taking into account the severity and phenotype of PE.
Materials and methods: A prospective case-control study was conducted involving peripheral blood plasma samples collected from women with normal pregnancies (n=30) and preeclampsia (n=50). Multiplex assay was used to determine the concentrations of sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, sE-selectin, and sP-selectin.
Results: The concentration of sVCAM-1 in peripheral blood was significantly higher in women with preeclampsia than in those with uncomplicated pregnancies (p<0.001). Furthermore, sVCAM-1 levels were significantly higher in severe than in moderate preeclampsia (p=0.014). In addition, sVCAM-1 levels were higher in patients with early-onset than in those with late-onset preeclampsia. However, no statistically significant differences were observed in the levels of sICAM-1, sE-selectin, or sP-selectin.
Conclusion: Our study revealed increased sVCAM-1 levels in the peripheral blood of pregnant women with preeclampsia. This elevation correlates with the severity of the disease, suggesting the involvement of this molecule in the development of preeclampsia. The differences in sVCAM-1 levels between early- and late-onset preeclampsia suggest different pathogenic mechanisms underlying these two conditions.
