Abstract

Introduction: The antiphospholipid syndrome is characterized by the persistent presence of antiphospholipid antibodies and clinical manifestations of thrombosis or gestational morbidity that are associated with oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction.
Objective: To evaluate markers of oxidative stress in endothelial cells induced by the serum from women with different clinical manifestations of the antiphospholipid syndrome, and to analyze the antioxidant capacity of the sera.
Materials and methods: We included 48 women who were classified as follows: presence of antiphospholipid antibodies and clinical criteria of gestational morbidity alone, vascular thrombosis only, and gestational morbidity/vascular thrombosis. Control groups included antiphospholipid antibodies negative women. In an in vitro model of endothelial cells stimulated with sera from women included in the groups, some markers of oxidative stress were determined by flow cytometry. The antioxidant capacity in the sera of these women was analyzed.
Results: The sera from the groups of women with antiphospholipid syndrome that presented thrombosis, with or without gestational morbidity, generated a significant increase (p<0.05 and p<0.001) in endothelial oxidative stress markers in contrast to the control of normal human serum. There were no differences in the effect of the sera from the different study groups on endothelial lipid peroxidation. Also, there was also no difference in the antioxidant activity of the sera.
Conclusion: Mitochondrial oxidative stress in the endothelium is associated with the presence of thrombosis; instead, its association with gestational morbidity generates intracellular oxidative stress.
