Abstract

Introductions: Preeclampsia is a specific syndrome in pregnancy as a result of abnormal placental invasion leading to placental hypoperfusion. Persistent hypoxia of the placenta causes the release of various inflammatory mediators into the circulation and results in local endothelial dysfunction. Increased endothelin-1 (ET-1) secretion and increased inflammatory mediators occur in preeclampsia.Aims: To analyze the relationship between endothelin-1 and early onset preeclampsia.Methods: This crosssectional study included 50 pregnant women with early onset preeclampsia (n=25) and normal pregnancies (n=25). Pregnant women aged 20-35 years with single intrauterine fetus, primigravida and multigravida who experienced early onset preeclampsia 34 weeks of gestation were included in this study. Endothelin-1 levels was measured using the Enzyme Linked Immunosorbant Assay (ELISA) method. The analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney test. Receiving Operator Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to find the cut-off value and diagnostic accuracy of endothelin-1 levels.Results: The mean of ET-1 level was significantly higher in early onset preeclampsia (0.732 ± 0.56 pg/mL) compared to normal pregnancy (0.318 ± 0.09 pg/mL) with value of p = 0.000. The ROC analysis showed the AUC value of 87.8% (p = 0.000, 95% CI 78.6%-97.1%). The cut-off value for ET-1 was 0.385 pg/mL, with 80% sensitivity and 68% specificity (PR=3.14; 95% CI 1.40-7.03).Conclusion: Increased levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) significantly associated with early onset preeclampsia. ET-1 level ≥ 0.385 pg/mL in pregnant women with 34 weeks of gestation is potential biomarkers to predict the occurrence of early onset preeclampsia with a risk up to 3.14 times.

Abstract

Abstract Background: Endometriosis is a gynaecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. The process of angiogenesis is regulated by VEGF which plays an important role in the development of endometriosis implants. Metformin is an insulin sensitizer that is known to have a beneficial effect in the treatment of endometriosis and DLBS3233 is a PPARγ agonist, it is hoped that it can reduce VEGF and reduce endometrial implants..Objective: To explore the effect of DLBS3233, metformin, and combination on VEGF expression and endometrial implant area of endometriosis-induced mice.Methods: This experimental study used 3-months old 28 BALB/c mice of endometriosis that were randomly and equally divided into four groups (K, P1, P2, and P3). On the 15th day, the K group was given a placebo, the P1 group was given DLBS3233 0.25 mg/day for 14 days, the P2 group was given metformin 4 mg/day for 14 days and the P3 group was given a combination. The immunohistochemistry of VEGF expression was performed from the abdominal cavity and pelvic peritoneal tissues of the mice and measured by the Remmele Scale Index, while the extracted mice's endometrial implants were analyzed with a computer tracing method. All data normality tests were calculated with the Shapiro-Wilk test. The mean difference test of all groups was analyzed using the one-way ANOVA test and the Kruskal-Wallis test.Results: There were significant differences in the expressions of VEGF (p=0.005) and endometrial implants (p=0.001). Expression of VEGF in the P3 group was significantly lower compared to others and endometrial implant area in the P2 group was significantly lower compared to others.Conclusion: DLBS3233 and Metformin may be a potentially effective drug treatments for endometriosis by decreasing VEGF expression and endometrial implants. Keywords: DLBS3233, Endometriosis, Metformin, VEGF
