Response of placental vasculature to high glucose levels in the isolated human placental cotyledon.

Abstract:

:We report the effect of high glucose infusion on vascular resistance in isolated human placental cotyledons perfused with Krebs-Ringer-bicarbonate solution containing 80 mg/dl (4.4 mmol/L), 160 mg/dl (8.8 mmol/L), or 320 mg/dl (17.6 mmol/L) D-glucose (n = 6). Placental vascular resistance remained constant during 25-minute perfusion periods with 80 mg/dl followed by 160 mg/dl glucose solution. Subsequent perfusion with 320 mg/dl glucose produced a significant increase in placental vascular resistance. Placentas were also studied in which the placental cotyledon was sequentially perfused for 25-minute periods with solutions containing glucose at 80 mg/dl followed immediately by 320 mg/dl (n = 5). Placental vascular resistance remained constant throughout perfusion with 80 mg/dl glucose solution but increased significantly after beginning perfusion with 320 mg/dl glucose. We conclude that the increase in placental vascular resistance appears to be a function of the high glucose level rather than the duration of glucose perfusion.
