“…The low enzymatic SOD activity shown in the pre-eclamptic patients may be explained by the lack of induction for production of SOD, since superoxide anion is reacting with nitric oxide to produce high peroxynitrite levels (18) and, at the same time, explains the low nitric oxide levels that are usually found (12). Increasing evidence suggests that endothelial dysfunction in preeclampsia is mediated by oxidative stress (17,23).…”

“…During pre-eclampsia, levels of available nitric oxide (NO) in plasma and placenta are decreased, while an increment in nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity occurs (12). The superoxide anion is known to inactivate NO in a chemical reaction forming the potent free radical peroxynitrite anion (ONOO-).…”

“…Se ha descrito que la pre-eclampsia es una de las principales causas de restricción de crecimiento intrauterino, mortalidad infantil, parto prematuro y complicaciones maternas del embarazo (2). Una de las teorías sobre la fisiopatología de la pre-eclampsia es la disminución de la síntesis y/o biodisponibilidad de óxido nítrico (NO) en és-tas pacientes (3). El aminoácido L-arginina, es un precursor de la síntesis de óxido nítrico, llevando al postulado de que su administración podría disminuir las cifras tensionales en pacientes hipertensas crónica y con pre-eclampsia (4,5).…”
