We evaluated bcl-2 protein levels in whole blood, and intraerythrocytic products of lipoperoxidation, in 65 healthy pregnant primiparous women at the end of the first, second and third trimesters of pregnancy. During pregnancy we found a progressive increase in concentrations of bcl-2 and intraerythrocytic products of lipoperoxidation. Moreover, a positive correlation was found between bcl-2 concentrations and lipoperoxidation products, and between bcl-2 protein, E2 and progesterone. The results show that modifications occurring during pregnancy are accompanied by variations of bcl-2 protein.

Abstract
We evaluated bcl-2 protein levels in whole blood, and intraerythrocytic products of lipoperoxidation, in 65 healthy pregnant primiparous women at the end of the first, second and third trimesters of pregnancy. During pregnancy we found a progressive increase in concentrations of bcl-2 and intraerythrocytic products of lipoperoxidation. Moreover, a positive correlation was found between bcl-2 concentrations and lipoperoxidation products, and between bcl-2 protein, E2 and progesterone. The results show that modifications occurring during pregnancy are accompanied by variations of bcl-2 protein.File in questo prodotto:
