| Abstract: | Human Leukocyte Antigen-G (HLA-G) prevents the activity of immune cells and is decreased in women with preeclampsia. We aimed to investigate the associations between circulating soluble HLA-G (sHLA-G) and 92 cardiovascular disease-related biomarkers from a previously published multiplex study in women with preeclampsia and controls. We found 15 markers significantly associated with circulating sHLA-G in univariate analyses. After multivariable adjusted regression, only proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src (SRC) and vascular endothelial growth factor D were significantly associated with sHLA-G. Low SRC, previously observed in the circulation of preeclamptic women, may be regulated by low sHLA-G, and reflect decreased trophoblast differentiation and syncytical formation. |
