Human serum albumin and oxidative stress in preeclamptic women and the mechanism of albumin for stress reduction

Abstract: AimsThe present study to address one of the mechanisms in preeclampsia, examined whether levels of oxidative stress, human serum albumin, and endothelial function correlate in pregnant women and whether human serum albumin reduces levels of superoxide produced by NADPH oxidase activation in the human vascular smooth muscle cells.Materials and methodsPregnant women with (Preeclampsia group, n = 33) and without preeclampsia (Normal group, n = 37) were recruited to determine levels of reactive oxygen species (ser… Show more

“…Albumin is a routine marker reflecting both nutritional status and systemic inflammation, while the synthesis of albumin can be suppressed by systematic inflammation and malnutrition. Recent studies have demonstrated that serum albumin functions as an antioxidant in the host defense mechanism . The ALB‐dNLR (albumin‐dNLR) score consists of the serum albumin and derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, indicating nutritional status and inflammatory conditions that are associated with the disease activity of RA patients, while there is no investigation about the associations between ALB‐dNLR score and disease activity in RA patients.…”

“…In our study, levels of albumin, which plays a key role in the transportation of antioxidants, and TAS were decreased especially in the overweight group. Kinoshita et al also reported that increased oxidative stress is associated with decreased albumin levels (21). Hydroxyl radicals released from the Fenton reactions are directed to the targets that are important for protein conservation, due to high affinity of albumin to metal ions.…”

“…This explain that when human serum albumin increase it work as an antioxidant in the endothelial function. This antioxidant effect on oxidative stress has a negative correlation which lead to decrease the secretions of β-hCG in PIH women [7].…”

“…Previous researches in biochemistry proved that serum albumin has a role as an antioxidant scavenging carbon-centered free radicals. However, the correlation between levels of human serum albumin, oxidative stress, and endothelial function in pregnant women especially those with PIH, remains unknown [7].…”
