OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to investigate the activation markets of T CD3(+), T helper CD4(+) and T cytotoxic CD8(+) cells, as well as, the populations of T naïve CD4(+) CD45RA(+), T memory CD4(+) CD45RO(+) and T regulatory lymphocytes in PE and healthy pregnant women. METHODS Twenty-five patients with PE and thirty healthy third trimester pregnant women were included in the study. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from peripheral blood, stained with monoclonal antibodies and estimated using the flow cytometric method. RESULTS The percentages of CD4(+)CD25(+), CD4(+)CD25(dim), CD3(+)HLA-DR(+), CD4(+)HLA-DR(+) and CD8(+)HLA-DR(+) cells did not differ between study groups. The population of T regulatory CD4(+)CD25(bright) lymphocytes was significantly lower in the group of patients with PE when compared with the controls (P < 0.01). The percentages of CD3(+)CD25(+) (P < 0.05), CD8(+)CD25(+) (P < 0.05), CD4(+)45RO(+) (P < 0.01) lymphocytes were significantly higher, while CD4(+)CD45RA(+) (P < 0.01) cells--significantly lower in peripheral blood of patients with PE when compared with the control group. CONCLUSIONS The increased levels of T CD4(+)45RO(+) and T CD8(+) CD25(+) cells can suggest the activation of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T lymphocytes in pre-eclampsia. It seems possible that the activation of T lymphocytes is associated with the deficiency of T regulatory cells in PE.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D011225 Pre-Eclampsia A complication of PREGNANCY, characterized by a complex of symptoms including maternal HYPERTENSION and PROTEINURIA with or without pathological EDEMA. Symptoms may range between mild and severe. Pre-eclampsia usually occurs after the 20th week of gestation, but may develop before this time in the presence of trophoblastic disease.

D013601 T-Lymphocytes Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.

D016207 Cytokines Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. Cytokine
D050378 T-Lymphocytes, Regulatory CD4-positive T cells that inhibit immunopathology or autoimmune disease in vivo. They inhibit the immune response by influencing the activity of other cell types. Regulatory T-cells include naturally occurring CD4+CD25+ cells, IL-10 secreting Tr1 cells, and Th3 cells.
