Resumo

Objective: to determine the level of placental apoptosis and antioxidant defense enzyme genes (glutathione peroxidase (GPX1) and glutathione reductase (GSR)) expression in preeclampsia. Subjects and methods. The investigation included 31 patients. All the patients were divided into 2 groups: 1) 11 pregnant women with preeclampsia (a study group); 2) 20 healthy individuals (a comparison group). The gene expression was studied by a qPCR assay and apoptosis was evaluated by the TUNEL method in the placenta. Results. In preeclampsia, the placental expression of glutathione reductase and GPX1 was ascertained to be increased in 100 and 40% of cases, respectively. In the preeclamptic patients, the level of placental apoptosis was also found to be considerably higher than that in apparently healthy individuals and in some cases stem villi were destroyed due to programmed cell death in the villous stroma and syncyotiotrophoblast. Conclusion. GPX1 and GSD gene expression increases in the placenta of preeclamptic patients. Oxidative stress gives rise to the higher level of apoptosis in the placental villi. Not only trophoblast cells, but also, in some cases, villous stromal cells may undergo apoptosis.
