  Background: Long-chain Free Fatty Acids (FFA) and long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD) are related to some preeclampsia. We studied the relationship between LCHAD, carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) I and II and FFA in different preeclampsia-like models. Methods: Classic preeclampsia models with Nw-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (L-NA) or Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection, antiphospholipid syndrome model with β2 glycoprotein I (β2GPI) injection, and ApoC3 mice with abnormal fatty acid metabolism (ApoC3+NS and ApoC3+L-NA) were used. Controls were saline injected. At days 14 and 18 of pregnancy, serum FFA levels were compared and placental and hepatic LCHAD, CPT I and II mRNA and protein were detected using real-time quantitative PCR and western blot. Results: Serum FFA levels increased sign.. Read More»
