Natural killer (NK) cell depleted (NKD) reduced uterine perfusion pressure (RUPP) serum improves mitochondrial respiration in endothelial cells. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) treated with 10% RUPP serum (n = 8) show a significant reduction in basal (P = 0.0114) and uncoupled respiration rates (P = 0.0264) vs. cells that were treated with NP serum (n = 5). Furthermore, RUPP+NKD serum (n = 6) restored basal respiration (P = 0.0301) with no improvement in uncoupled respiration (P = 0.124). Data are presented as means ± SE. Student’s t-test was used to perform to statistical analysis between 2 respective groups. *Significance compare with NP; #significant compared with RUPP.
