Longitudinal changes in maternal soluble endoglin and angiopoietin‐2 in women at risk for pre‐eclampsia

Abstract: Objective To investigate longitudinal changes in maternal plasma levels of soluble endoglin (sEng) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) in pregnant women who develop pre-eclampsia (PE) and gestational hypertension (GH). Methods

“…We also found evidence of a weak association between low endoglin and preeclampsia in women with normal BMI. This concurs with previous reports of lower endoglin to be a predictor of preeclampsia but when measured later than in this study, i.e., in the late second trimester (after 19 weeks) . Insulin sensitivity has been suggested to underpin the increased risk of preeclampsia in women with obesity or gestational diabetes , and it was of interest that we found no strong association of adipokines or insulin resistance markers with preeclampsia in the SCOPE women with obesity.…”

“…Han et al [49] suggested that maternal plasma Ang-2 level increases in severe PE. Although many recent studies suggest a link between maternal serum Angs-1 and -2 levels [21,[48][49][50][51][52], there is no study that assessed the value of Angs-1 and -2 as biomarkers of HELLP syndrome. According to our findings, patients with HELLP syndrome have higher Angs-1 and -2 levels, though the increase of Ang-2 is more meaningful.…”
