Therefore, we conclude that more functional and biochemical tests are needed to unravel the contribution of prostanoids in the mechanisms implicated in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia and the potential of dual COX and/or selective COX-2 inhibition for the prevention and treatment of pre-eclampsia.
The messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and protein expression levels of COX-2 in the eclampsia group were significantly higher than those of the normal group (p<0.05).
Therefore, the serum HMWA levels are closely related to the occurrence of eclampsia in PIH patients in secondary pregnancy, and it influences insulin resistance, inflammatory response and oxidative stress response, which is correlated with increased adiponectin receptor 2 and COX-2 protein expression in placental tissue.
