Summary
Objective:
It is to show the possible relationship between the patofysiology of pre-eclampsia in the body of a human with a relative lack of L-arginine and its potential connection with a nitrogen metabolism. This study also suggests the further utilization of above mentioned knowledges in a prevention and a treatment of pre-eclampsia.
Design:
Literary overview.
Setting:
Gynaecology and Obstetric Department of the Hospital Kromeriz, Inc., Kromeriz.
Methods:
The background research of studies and issues published already in medical professional journals, bulletins and medical web databases.
Conclusion:
To provide L-arginine to pregnant women as a dietary supplement concerns no risk and is an easy precaution. L-arginine can reduce the occurrance of pre-eclampsia in women with a potential high risk of its developement. The most important transmitter substance that makes L-arginine work is the dioxide nitrogen. So far, it has been the outmost possibility how to influence the patofysiology of Pre-eclampsia The lack of L-arginine and its influence on the nitrogen metabolism is likely, but there is also a great need for further research.
Keywords:
pre-eclampsia – L-arginine – dioxide nitrogen – NO synthase – dysfunction of endothelium – urea cycle
