Abstract：
:Histidyl proline diketopiperazine values have been established in human amniotic fluid (n = 81) and maternal serum (n = 36) throughout gestation (10 to 42 weeks). Newborn cord serum (n = 10) and first-voided fetal urine (n = 10) levels were also documented. These measurements reveal increasing amniotic fluid levels with term gestation values (15,551 pg/ml) nearly thirteen-fold higher than maternal serum concentrations (1150 pg/ml). Corresponding fetal urine and cord serum concentrations were 16,781 and 2160 pg/ml, respectively. The amniotic fluid values are not influenced by fetal sex or maternal labor, nor do they correlate with amniotic fluid alpha-fetoprotein levels. However, there is a significant inverse correlation (r = -0.628; p less than 0.0001) between amniotic fluid prolactin and histidyl proline diketopiperazine after midgestation. The hypothesis that histidyl proline diketopiperazine may be a regulatory peptide for decidual prolactin production was tested by culturing term decidua in the presence of varying concentrations of histidyl proline diketopiperazine, but no inhibitory effect was observed. Decidual cultures did not produce measurable amounts of histidyl proline diketopiperazine. It is suggested that amniotic fluid histidyl proline diketopiperazine is derived from fetal urine.
