| Descripción |
It has been suggested that induction of the heat shock response in the mammalian embryo during the critical period of organogenesis can result in anatomical malformation. We measured serum heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), anti-Hsp70, and anti-Hsp60 in samples taken from expectant mothers at 16 weeks gestation. Samples from women whose babies were born with a birth defect (n = 30) were compared with controls who gave birth to healthy babies (n = 46). Anti-Hsp70 levels were significantly elevated in patients who later gave birth to babies with cleft lip or palate or neurological abnormalities (n = 10): 260 (223406) ?g/mL compared to 150 (88207) ?g/mL in controls (P < 0.001). No significant differences were found in serum Hsp70 and anti-Hsp60 levels between cases and controls. This finding of increased maternal anti-Hsp70 in patients who later gave birth to babies with these abnormalities suggests a previous stressful event may have contributed to the pathogenesis. Further work is required to determine whether Hsp70 has a direct or indirect role in this pathogenesis or whether anti-Hsp70 is simply a marker of a prior increase in Hsp70 due to a physiological stress that itself resulted in the damage. This work is consistent with previous studies showing a buffering role for Hsps in evolution.
