heal.abstract | OBJECTIVE: Investigation of the possible role of leptin in early pregnancy failure. METHODS: Leptin concentration was measured in maternal serum, coelomic fluid and amniotic fluid from 15 singleton pregnancies with live fetuses and 7 missed miscarriages at 7-10 weeks of gestation. RESULTS: In the pregnancies with live fetuses, the median leptin concentration was significantly higher in coelomic fluid (median 33.1 ng/ml) than in maternal serum (median 8.1 ng/ml) or amniotic fluid (median 0.5 ng/ml). In the pregnancies with missed miscarriage, compared to those with live fetuses, the median leptin concentration in coelomic fluid was higher (median 45.3 ng/ml), but in maternal serum it was not significantly different (median 5.5 ng/ml). CONCLUSIONS: The high coelomic fluid leptin concentration suggests that embryonic death may be preceded by impaired oxygenation of the placenta that stimulates production of leptin. | en |
