Abstract

Elevated expression of soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (sFlt-1) in preeclampsia plays a major role in the pathogenesis of this serious disorder of human pregnancy. Although reduced placental oxygenation is thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia, it is unclear how oxygen regulates placental sFlt-1 expression. The aims herein were to investigate sFlt-1 expression in in vivo and in vitro physiological and pathological models of human placental hypoxia and to understand the role of hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) in regulating the expression of this molecule. sFlt-1 expression in placental villi was significantly increased under physiological low oxygen conditions in early first-trimester and in high-altitude placentae, as well as in pathological low oxygen conditions, such as preeclampsia. In high-altitude and in preeclamptic tissue, sFlt-1 localized within villi to perivascular regions, the syncytiotrophoblast layer, and syncytial knots. In first-trimester villous explants, low oxygen, but not hypoxia-reoxygenation (HR), increased sFlt-1 expression. Moreover, exposure of villous explants to dimethyloxalyl-glycin, a pharmacological inhibitor of prolyl-hydroxylases, which mimics hypoxia ...Continue Reading
