Abstract

The aim is to study the features of changes of free-radical status, antioxidant protection and morphologic changes of erythrocytes of the peripheral blood of pregnant women of the first trimester with exacerbation of cytomegalovirus infection (CMVI). 35 pregnant women with exacerbation of CMVI in the first trimester of gestation (the main group) and 35 pregnant women without this pathology of the same age and term as the patients of the main group were examined. Erythrocytes of the venous blood stabilized by heparine as well as blood plasma became the material of the study. There has been studied the condition of lipid peroxidation (LP) by the contents of diene conjugates and active products reacting with thiobarbituric acid; the state of nonenzymatic antioxidant protection by the contents of α-tocopherol as well as of the enzyme of erythrocytes (superoxide dismutase); morphologic changes of erythrocytes. It was found out that the exacerbation of CMVI in the first trimester of pregnancy is associated with activation of LP processes which include modification of not only primary, reverse stages of this process – the increase of the concentration of diene conjugates (p<0.001), but they lead to an increased formation of secondary active products reacting with thiobarbituric acid (p<0.001), intensifying the destructive action on the membrane of erythrocytes. Primary and secondary products of LP against the decrease of concentration of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (p<0.001) and α-tocopherol (p<0.001) are accumulated in increasing concentrations and become potential factors of erythrocytes damage causing their functional and metabolic inferiority. Metabolic disturbances and damages of cellular membranes lead to the increase of population of echinocytes, target-like and degenerative forms of erythrocytes, which can be accompanied by a high probability of intravascular hemolysis and contribute to the development of hemic hypoxia complicating the infectious process and the course of pregnancy. Within the present hyperoxidation and suppression of antioxidant protection that lead to the worsening of the rheology of blood, women with exacerbation of CMVI in the first trimester of pregnancy should be prescribed the medicine stabilizing the lipid exchange.
