Abstract
Objective: Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is defined as the attachment of the placenta to the uterine wall in varying degrees. However, the studies have explored that the underlying molecular mechanisms of the PAS are very limited. Sirtuins 1 (SIRT1) is associated with placental development by controlling trophoblast cell invasion and remodeling of spiral arteries. We aimed to determine the expression level of SIRT1 in placentas, and maternal and umbilical cord serum of patients with PAS.
Methods: In total, 30 individuals in control, 20 patients in the placenta previa group, and 30 patients in the PAS group were included in this study. The expression levels of SIRT1 in the placentas were determined by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Serum levels of SIRT1 in maternal and umbilical cord blood were determined by ELISA.
Results: SIRT1 was significantly lower in placentas of the PAS. However, maternal and umbilical cord serum samples were not significantly different between groups.
Conclusion: SIRT1 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of the PAS.
