OBJECTIVE: The role of proteoglycans (PGs) of the umbilical cord arteries (UCAs) in the pathomechanism of pre-eclampsia is not known. Therefore we decided to compare the PGs of normal (control) UCAs and those of newborns delivered by mothers with pre-eclampsia.
METHODS: PGs were extracted in dissociative conditions, purified by Q-Sepharose anion exchange chromatography and lyophilized. They were analyzed by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE before and after treatment with chondroitinase ABC.
RESULTS: It was found that the PG preparation from pre-eclamptic UCAs had a higher amount of sulphated glycosaminoglycans (in relation to protein) than in the case of control UCAs. The predominant PG fraction included small PGs with core proteins of 45 and 47 kD, immunologically related to biglycan (45 kD) and decorin (45 and 47 kD). The expression of decorin core proteins was increased and that of biglycan slightly decreased in pre-eclamptic UCAs. Some other putative small PG core proteins (56, 53, 49, 42, 38 and 34 kD) were also found. They were present in higher amounts in pre-eclamptic UCAs. Larger PGs (core proteins of 99-110 and >150 kD), were detected in lower amounts, both in control and particularly in pre-eclamptic material.
CONCLUSION: Pre-eclampsia is associated with alterations in PG composition of the UCAs. They may affect the mechanical properties of this organ and disturb fetal blood circulation.
