    • Preeclampsia is a severe complication of pregnancy. Chemerin is an adipokine secreted from adipose tissue and highly expressed in placenta. This study evaluated the biomarker potential of circulating chemerin to predict preeclampsia.Maternal plasma and placenta were collected from women with early-onset preeclampsia (<34 weeks), with preeclampsia and eclampsia, or before preeclampsia diagnosis (36 weeks). Human trophoblast stem cells were differentiated into syncytiotrophoblast or extravillous trophoblasts across 96 hours. Cells were cultured in 1% O2 (hypoxia) or 5% O2 (normoxia). Chemerin was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and RARRES2 (gene coding chemerin) by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Circulating chemerin was increased in 46 women with early-onset preeclampsia (<34 weeks) compared to 17 controls (P < .0006). Chemerin was increased in placenta from 43 women with early-onset preeclampsia compared to 24 controls (P < .0001). RARRES2 was reduced in placenta from 43 women with early-onset preeclampsia vs 24 controls (P < .0001). Chemerin was increased in plasma from 26 women with established preeclampsia (P = .006), vs 15 controls. Circulating chemerin was increased in 23 women who later developed preeclampsia vs 182 who did not (P = 3.23 × 10-6). RARRES2 was reduced in syncytiotrophoblast (P = .005) or extravillous trophoblasts (P < .0001). Hypoxia increased RARRES2 expression in syncytiotrophoblast (P = .01) but not cytotrophoblast cells.Circulating chemerin was elevated in women with early-onset preeclampsia, established preeclampsia, and preceding preeclampsia diagnosis of preeclampsia. RARRES2 was dysregulated in placenta complicated by preeclampsia and may be regulated through hypoxia. Chemerin may have potential as a biomarker for preeclampsia but would need to be combined with other biomarkers.

  • Circulating growth differentiation factor 15 is increased preceding preeclampsia diagnosis: Implications as a disease biomarker
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Journal of the American Heart Association. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 2047-9980. ; 10:16
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: We investigated the biomarker potential of growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), a stress response protein highly expressed in placenta, to predict preeclampsia. METHODS AND RESULTS: In 2 prospective cohorts (cohort 1: 960 controls, 39 women who developed preeclampsia; cohort 2: 950 controls, 41 developed preeclampsia), plasma concentrations of GDF-15 at 36 weeks’ gestation were significantly increased among those who developed preeclampsia (P<0.001), area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) of 0.66 and 0.71, respectively. In cohort 2 a ratio of sFlt-1/PlGF (a clinical biomarker for preeclampsia) had a sensitivity of 61.0% at 83.2% specificity to predict those who will develop preeclampsia (AUC of 0.79). A ratio of GDF-15×sFlt-1/PlGF yielded a sensitivity of 68.3% at 83.2% specificity (AUC of 0.82). GDF-15 was consistently elevated across a number of international cohorts: levels were higher in placenta and blood from women delivering <34 weeks’ gestation due to preterm preeclampsia in Melbourne, Australia; and in the blood at 26 to 32 weeks’ gestation among 57 women attending the Manchester Antenatal Vascular Service (MAViS, UK) who developed preeclampsia (P=0.0002), compared with 176 controls. In the Preeclampsia Obstetric adVerse Events biobank (PROVE, South Africa), plasma GDF-15 was significantly increased in women with preec-lampsia with severe features (P=0.02; n=14) compared to controls (n=14). CONCLUSIONS: We conclude circulating GDF-15 is elevated among women more likely to develop preeclampsia or diagnosed with the condition. It may have value as a clinical biomarker, including the potential to improve the sensitivity of sFlt-1/PlGF ratio.

    • Background Preeclampsia is pregnancy specific, involving significant maternal endothelial dysfunction. Predictive biomarkers are lacking. We evaluated the biomarker potential, expression, and function of PSG7 (pregnancy-specific β-1 glycoprotein 7) and PSG9 (pregnancy-specific β-1 glycoprotein 9) in preeclampsia. Methods and Results At 36 weeks gestation preceding term preeclampsia diagnosis, PSG7 and PSG9 (in Australian cohorts of n=918 and n=979, respectively) were significantly increased before the onset of term preeclampsia (PSG7, P=0.013; PSG9, P=0.0011). In samples collected at 28 to 32 weeks from those with preexisting cardiovascular disease and at high risk of preeclampsia (Manchester Antenatal Vascular Service, UK cohort, n=235), both PSG7 and PSG9 were also significantly increased preceding preeclampsia onset (PSG7, P<0.0001; PSG9, P=0.0003) relative to controls. These changes were validated in the plasma and placentas of patients with established preeclampsia who delivered at <34 weeks gestation (PSG7, P=0.0008; PSG9, P<0.0001). To examine whether PSG7 and PSG9 are associated with increasing disease severity, we measured them in a cohort from South Africa stratified for this outcome, the PROVE (Preeclampsia Obstetric Adverse Events) cohort (n=72). PSG7 (P=0.0027) and PSG9 (P=0.0028) were elevated among patients who were preeclamptic with severe features (PROVE cohort), but not significantly changed in those without severe features or with eclampsia. In syncytialized first trimester cytotrophoblast stem cells, exposure to TNFα (tumor necrosis factor α) or IL-6 (interleukin 6) significantly increased the expression and secretion of PSG7 and PSG9. In contrast, when we treated primary endothelial cells with recombinant PSG7 and PSG9, we only observed modest changes in Flt-1 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase-1) expression and Plgf (placental growth factor) expression, and no other effects on proangiogenic/antiangiogenic or endothelial dysfunction markers were observed. Conclusions Circulating PSG7 and PSG9 are increased before preeclampsia onset and among those with established disease with their production and release potentially driven by placental inflammation.

  • Long-term cloud forest response to climate warming revealed by insect speciation history
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Evolution. - : Wiley. - 0014-3820 .- 1558-5646. ; 75:2, s. 231-244

    • Montane cloud forests are areas of high endemism, and are one of the more vulnerable terrestrial ecosystems to climate change. Thus, understanding how they both contribute to the generation of biodiversity, and will respond to ongoing climate change, are important and related challenges. The widely accepted model for montane cloud forest dynamics involves upslope forcing of their range limits with global climate warming. However, limited climate data provides some support for an alternative model, where range limits are forced downslope with climate warming. Testing between these two models is challenging, due to the inherent limitations of climate and pollen records. We overcome this with an alternative source of historical information, testing between competing model predictions using genomic data and demographic analyses for a species of beetle tightly associated to an oceanic island cloud forest. Results unequivocally support the alternative model: populations that were isolated at higher elevation peaks during the Last Glacial Maximum are now in contact and hybridizing at lower elevations. Our results suggest that genomic data are a rich source of information to further understand how montane cloud forest biodiversity originates, and how it is likely to be impacted by ongoing climate change.
