MicroRNA miR-27a as a possible regulator of anti-inflammatory macrophage phenotype in preeclamptic placenta. Placenta 2024; 145:151-161.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The role of the TGFβ signaling pathway, an important cascade responsible for the anti-inflammatory polarization of macrophages, in the development of both early- and late-onset preeclampsia (eoPE and loPE), remains poorly understood. In this study, we examined the components of the TGFβ signaling cascade and macrophage markers within placental tissue in normal pregnancy and in PE. METHODS Patients with eoPE, loPE, and normal pregnancy were enrolled in the study (n = 10 in each group). Following techniques were used for the investigation: immunohistochemistry analysis, western blotting, qRT-PCR, isolation of monocytes by magnetic sorting, transfection, microRNA sequencing, and bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS We observed a significant decrease in the anti-inflammatory macrophage marker CD206 in the loPE group, alongside with a significant down-regulation of CD206 protein production in both eoPE and loPE groups. The level of CD68-positive cells and relative levels of CD163 and MARCO production were comparable across the groups. However, we identified a significant decrease in the TGFβ receptor 2 production and its gene expression in the PE group. Further analysis revealed a link between TGFBR2 and MRC1 (CD206) genes through a single miRNA, hsa-miR-27a-3p. Transfecting CD14-derived macrophages with the hsa-miR-27a-3p mimic significantly changed TGFBR2 production, indicating the potential role of this miRNA in regulating the TGFβ signaling pathway. We also revealed the up-regulation of hsa-miR-27a-5p and hsa-miR-27a-3p in the trophoblast BeWo b30 cell line under the severe hypoxia condition and the fact that TGFBR2 3' UTR could serve as a potential target for these miRNAs. DISCUSSION Our findings uncover a novel potential therapeutic target for managing patients with PE, significantly contributing to a deeper comprehension of the underlying mechanisms involved in the development of this pathology.

Risk Factors for Early and Late Onset Preeclampsia in Reunion Island: Multivariate Analysis of Singleton and Twin Pregnancies. A 20-Year Population-Based Cohort of 2120 Preeclampsia Cases.

Abstract
Objectives: To develop a multivariate model for risk factors specific to early onset preeclampsia (EOP) and late onset preeclampsia (LOP) in our entire population (singleton and twin pregnancies). Material and methods: 20 year-observational population-based historical cohort study (2001–2020). All consecutive births delivered at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Hospitalier Sud Reunion’s maternity ward. A standardized validated epidemiological perinatal database was used. Results: During the 20-year period, there were 81,834 pregnancies and 83,497 infants born, 1232 dichorionic and 350 monochorionic twin pregnancies. There were 2120 cases of preeclampsia, of which 2001 were preeclamptic singleton pregnancies and 119 twin pregnancies (incidence 7.5% in twin pregnancies vs. 2.5% singletons, OR 3.0, p < 0.001). Independent risk factors for EOP and LOP in a multivariate model (controlling for the two major confounders: maternal ages—both risks for EOP and LOP, and maternal pre-pregnancy BMI—specific risk factor for LOP) were: history of preeclampsia (adjusted OR (aOR) 11.7 for EOP, 7.8 for LOP, p < 0.0001), chronic hypertension (aOR 7.3 for EOP, 3.9 for LOP, p < 0.0001), history of perinatal death (aOR 2.2 for EOP, p < 0.0001 and 1.48 for LOP, p = 0.007), primipaternity (aOR 3.0 for EOP and 3.6 for LOP, p = 0.001), dizygotic twin pregnancies (aOR 3.7 for EOP, p < 0.0001 and 2.1 for LOP, p = 0.003), monozygotic twin pregnancies (aOR 3.98 for EOP, p = 0.003 and non-significant (NS) for LOP), ovulation induction (aOR 5.6 for EOP, p = 0.004 and NS for LOP), and in vitro fertilization (aOR 2.8 for EOP, p = 0.05 and NS for LOP). Specific to LOP and NS for EOP: renal diseases (aOR for LOP 2.9, p = 0.007) and gestational diabetes mellitus (aOR 1.2, p = 0.04). Conclusions: Maternal ages over 35 years, chronic hypertension, history of preeclampsia, ovulation induction, in vitro fertilizations, history of perinatal deaths and twin pregnancy (in our experience, especially mono zygotic twin pregnancies) are significant risk factors for EOP. New paternity is an independent factor for both EOP and LOP.
