Periodic assessment of antenatal and post natal serum endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide (NO) levels in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP)

Introduction: Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy (HDP) is an independent risk factor of cardiovascular (CVS) disease with endothelial dysfunction postulated to be the pathophysiology. Endothelin-1 (ET-1), a potent vasoconstrictor, has been identified as a pivotal mediator in HDP. Disturbances in ni...

This was accompanied by significantly lower levels of serum NO in HDP patients. Conclusion: Persistently higher than normal levels of ET-1 and lower than normal levels of NO up to 3 months postpartum in patients with history of HDP indicate presence of persistent endothelial dysfunction despite BP normalisation in PIH patients.
