Analysis of purine metabolites in maternal serum for evaluating the risk of gestosis

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2013 Sep;155(5):682-4. doi: 10.1007/s10517-013-2225-y.

Abstract

Metabolome analysis of the serum from pregnant patients aimed at detection of low-molecular-weight biomarkers of gestation process disorders indicated a relationship between the metabolic profile of maternal serum and risk of gestosis. In women with pre-eclampsia or preterm delivery, analysis of serum purine metabolites revealed changes in the metabolite concentrations, associated with pregnancy complications.
