Popis: Objectives: Preeclamptic pregnancies feature placental anomalies. Villous trophoblast differentiation during placental development is regulated by feto-placental macrophages and disturbance of this well-balanced regulation can lead to pathological pregnancies. We hypothesized that Cluster of differentiation 74 (CD74) dysregulation of placental macrophages, leading to altered macrophage-trophoblast interaction, is involved in preeclampsia. Methods and Results: We performed microarray analysis of placental tissue. CD74 was one of the most down-regulated (-2.5 fold) genes in placentas from preeclamptic women. We confirmed this finding in early onset ( Conclusions: We found that CD74 downregulation in placental macrophages is present in preeclampsia. CD74 downregulation led to altered macrophage activation towards a pro-inflammatory signature, a disturbed crosstalk with trophoblasts and an abnormal placental morphology.
