AIM: Aim of this study was to assess concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) in the serum of newborns with diagnosed intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) in comparison to concentrations in serum of newborns with weight appropriate for gestational age (AGA).
MATERIALS: Research was conducted at the Lodz Medical University Clinic of Neonatology during 2010-2011. Surveyed group consisted of 50 hypotrophic full-term infants of single pregnancies (average weight: 2329 ± 287 g); control group, enclosing 50 infants AGA (average weight: 3544 ± 2161 g). Both groups received average Apgar score of 9 points. Concentrations of analysed cytokines were marked between 4-6 hours after birth. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test was used to determine interleukins concentrations. Study was prospective. Statistics on the data were conducted with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Significance level: p < 0.05.
RESULTS: Concentrations of IL-6 and IL-18 were elevated in the IUGR group in a statistically significant manner in comparison to the control group.
CONCLUSIONS: An elevated level of IL-6 and IL-18 in the IUGR group, comparing to control group, signifies the existence of inflammation in the process of developing IUGR, therefore, screening tests estimating levels of interleukins as IL-6 and IL-18 might be clinically useful in predicting the occurrence of IUGR and help preventing it.
