Figure 4. Effect of EGA on respiration by isolated platelets.

Figure 4

(A) Average OCRs (pmoles/min/µg protein) for the experiment described by Figure 2 were compared for platelets isolated from healthy pregnant women <34 weeks EGA (n=8, solid blue bars) with those cases ≥34 weeks EGA (n=12, striped blue bars). (B) The same comparison as in (A) was made for platelets from preeclamptic pregnant <34 weeks EGA (n=16, solid green bar) and preeclamptic pregnant ≥34 weeks EGA (n=4, striped green bars). (C) Average OCRs by isolated platelets from non-pregnant women (red bars) and healthy pregnant women <34 weeks EGA (blue bars) were compared. (D) Average OCRs by isolated platelets from non-pregnant women (red bars) and healthy pregnant women ≥34 weeks EGA (blue bars) were compared. (E) Average OCRs between healthy pregnant women <34 weeks EGA (n=8, blue bars) and preeclamptic cases <34 weeks EGA that also had IUGR (n=10, green bars) were compared. Data are presented as mean ± S.D. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001.
