Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are characterized by an increase in systemic blood pressure. Preeclampsia is considered the most severe of these disorders and is usually accompanied by proteinuria and other clinical symptoms after the 20th gestational week. Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) may participate in the control of vascular tone through the release of vasoactive substances, …
Under gestation period, several cardiovascular adaptations must occur to maintain a healthy pregnancy. Preeclampsia (PE) is a disorder that occurs during pregnancy that is characterized by elevated maternal blood pressure (140x90mmHg) accompanied by proteinuria in 24-hour urine after the 20th week of pregnancy. Its pathogenesis is still unclear; however, the placenta seems to play a key r…
Taking into account that there are controversial antioxidative effects of inhalational anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane and absence of comparison of genotoxicity of both anesthetics in animal model, the aim of this study was to compare DNA damage and antioxidant status in Wistar rats exposed to a single time to isoflurane or sevoflurane. The alkaline single-cell gel electrophoresis …

Pre-eclampsia is a gestational hypertensive disorder characterized by systolic and diastolic blood pressure commonly greater than 140/90 mmHg and which usually appears after the 20th week of pregnancy. Studies suggest increases in oxidative stress and antiangiogenic factors in pre-eclampsia with a concomitant reduction in vasodilator mediators and deficient placentation, which are accompa…
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are the main causes of maternal and fetal mortality, characterized by elevations in maternal blood pressure which may compromise fetal development. The pathogenesis is still unknown, but there are theories that there is a decrease in the plasticity of the vessels of the maternal-fetal interface, placental ischemia accompanied by maternal endothelial dys…
Preeclampsia is featured by increases in systolic and diastolic blood pressures, often followed by proteinuria after the 20th gestational week. Theories suggest that preeclampsia may be caused by poor placentation and that this diminishes the elasticity of the maternal-fetal interface vessels, impairing blood flow to the uterus and that may cause placental hypoperfusion and ischemia, whic…
The use of inhalational anesthetics has been increasingly studied in non-elective surgeries in pregnant women, since this approach is necessary in emergency procedures. Thus, examining the vascular repercussions of anesthesia at the gestation may provide support for assessing the cardiovascular effects on the mother, minimizing the risk of fetal impairment, and preventing preterm labor. I…

Preeclampsia affects 5-8% of pregnancies and is characterized by increased blood pressure and proteinuria from 20 weeks of gestation. These changes appear to be initially related to placental ischemia, causing insufficient uteroplacental oxygenation followed by increased release of anti-angiogenic factors such as sFlt-1 (soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1, which is a soluble VEGF receptor…
