Chinese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 2011;46(2):88-93
Objective To evaluate the expression of annexin V in maternal blood and placenta,and to explore the relationship between annexin V and preeclampsia(PE). Methods 120 women with PE who delivered babies in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from December 2007 to December 2009 were chosen as study groups. They were classified into four groups: early-onset mild group (n =30),early-onset severe group (n=30), late-onset mild group ( n = 30) and late-onset severe group (n=30). 30women without perinatal complications who accepted elective term cesarean section were chosen as control group. Western blot and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression and localization of annexin V in placenta and maternal blood. Flow cytometry was employed to detect the apoptosis of cytotrophoblast.Annexin V mRNA level was determined by reverse transcription (RT)PCR. Prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FiB), international normalized ratio (INR) were detected in each group. Results (1) The expression of annexin V in placenta and maternal blood were:0.54±0.12 and 0.62±0.17 in early-onset mild group; 0.47±0.15 and 0.56±0.24 in early-onset severe group; 0.74±0.23 and 1.08±0.32 in late-onset mild group; 0.68±0.28 and 0.72±0.21 in late-onset severe group;1.73±0.35 and 1.55±0.27 in control group. They were significantly lower in PE groups than in control group (P<0.05 ). However, there was no significant difference among PE groups (P>0. 05). (2) The early apoptosis, late apoptosis percentage of trophoblast cells were: 3. 21%, 0. 86%, in early-onset mild group; 5.32%, 0. 72%, in early-onset severe group; 2. 43%, 0. 63%, in late-onset mild group;4. 28%, 0. 48% in late-onset severe group; 1.05%, 0. 59%, in control group. Early apoptosis percentage in each group of PE was higher than that in control group ( P < 0. 05 ). However, there was no significant difference among PE groups (P>0.05). (3) The annexin V mRNA levels in placenta were:25.0±3.0 in early-onset mild group; 24. 8 ± 3.0 in early-onset severe group; 25.4 ± 3. 9 in late-onset mildgroup; 25.1±2.7 in late-onset severe group, respectively. All were significantly higher than that in control group (30. 6±3.0, P< 0. 05), and no significant difference was found among PE groups (P>0.05).(4) PT, APTT, FiB, INR levels were: (11.3±2.4), (25.6±2.9) s, (4.6±0.9) g/L and 0.9 ±0.2in early-onset mild group; (12.1±1.9), (27. 2 ±2. 1 ) s, (5.0 ± 1. 0) g/L and 0. 9 ±0. 2 in early-onset severe group; (11.7±2.3), (26.5±2.3)s,(5.0±0.7)g/L and 0.8±0.3 in late-onset mild group;(11.4±2.6), (27.3±3.0) s, (4.3 ±0.8) g/L and 0.8 ±0.3 in late-onset severe group; (12.4±2.7), ( 28.0±1.9) s, (5.1±1.2) g/L and 0.9 ± 0.2 in control group. There was no significant difference among PE groups and control group ( P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The expression changes of annexin V in placenta and maternal blood were observed in patients with PE. This indicated that annexin V played an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of PE by affecting coagulation.

Objective To observe the occurrence of vascular calcification in maintenance hemedialysis (MHD) patients. Method Sixty-nine MHD patients were enrolled in this study. Vascular calcification was evaluated by plain X-my films of chest, upper and lower extremites. Analyzed the relationship of vascular calcification and cardiovascular disease. Results Vascular calcification on X-ray films presented in 38 cases (55%). Of the 23 cases with calcification on arteries of extremites, 14 cases were found to have both intimal calcification and medial calcification. Patients with vascular calcification were older. Ischemic heart disease and cardiac failure appeared more frequently in the patients with vascular calcification. Conclusions Both intimal calcification and medial calcification are frequently found in the MHD patients. Vascular calcification is probablly associated with cardiovascular disease in MHD patients.
