Objective. To carry out a systematic analysis of the data available in the current Russian and foreign literature on a change in the level of various autoantibodies (autoAb) in the development of preeclampsia and on the possibility of its diagnostic use.
Material and methods. The investigations included data from the Russian and foreign publications appearing during the past 15 years.
Results. The results of clinical and immunological analyses suggest that one of the direct pathogenetic factors in the development of preeclampsia may be an abnormal decrease in the production of many autoAbs. Thus, the study of autoAbs is an additional reliable method to diagnose preeclampsia.
Conclusion. Further immunological investigations are needed to understand the significance of autoAbs in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.
