Abstract
To analyze postprandial lipemia and postprandial endotoxemia in normal pregnancy and pre-eclampsia. Materials and Methods: Fasting and postprandial total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides were determined sequentially in blood samples. Serum LPS concentrations were measured by endotoxin assay, based on a Limulus amebocyte extract. The endotoxin levels were determined in serum of normal pregnancy and pre-eclampsia at fasting, 1 hr., 2hr, 3 hr. and 4 hr. and their levels related with postprandial lipemia in the same conditions. Fasting and postprandial total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and triglycerides were increased more in pre-eclampsia than in normal pregnancy. Similarly endotoxin levels were also increased significantly in fasting and postprandial pre-eclamsia. The potential of the endotoxin in the development of an early-stage specific diagnostic biomarker for Pre-eclampsia is also emphasized.
