Comparison of maternal and umbilical cord blood soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 levels in early- and late-onset preeclampsia

Background The main purpose of this study was to determine the maternal and umbilical cord blood oxidized LDL (oxLDL) and soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (sLOX-1) levels in early- and late-onset preeclampsia (PE). Materials and methods A case–control study was conduct...

Description
Summary:Background The main purpose of this study was to determine the maternal and umbilical cord blood oxidized LDL (oxLDL) and soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (sLOX-1) levels in early- and late-onset preeclampsia (PE). Materials and methods A case–control study was conducted in pregnant women with early-onset (before 34 weeks’ gestation n  = 19) and late-onset (after 34 weeks’ gestation n  = 22) PE compared to healthy normotensive pregnant controls ( n  = 44). Groups were compared for the maternal and umbilical cord plasma oxLDL and serum sLOX-1 levels. Results The mean maternal and umbilical cord serum sLOX-1 and plasma oxLDL levels were significantly increased in early- and late-onset PE compared to controls ( p
