title: [Evaluation of some neutrophil adhesion molecules in pregnancy complicated by diabetes mellitus type 1].
abstract: The effective functions of human peripheral blood neutrophil are modulated by regulatory molecules depending on receptor agonists and adhesion molecules.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  Evaluation of percentage of neutrophil adhesion molecules in pregnancy of diabetic mothers as well as their expression on peripheral blood neutrophils.
  
  
  METHODS
  A-12 pregnant diabetic women at 7-13 and 34-36 weeks of first gestation, B-11 healthy pregnant women match for gestation, age and parity; C-11 healthy non-diabetic women; D-14 diabetic, non-pregnant women.
  
  
  METHODS
  MFI expression and percentage of CD18, CD11b, CD62L and CD54 were evaluated resting and activated by 30 min., fMLP preincubation using monoclonal antibodies anti-CD11b and anti-CD62L, employing Flow Cytometer FACSCalibur with computer program CELLquest.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Expression of CD11b and CD18 receptor on leukocyte of A, B, D groups was higher spontaneous and after stimulation by fMLP in I-st trimester compare to group C and then lowered in IIIrd. The significant difference in CD62L percentage was noticed resting and activated neutrophils in group A, which was lower compared to C and expression of CD62L on peripheral blood neutrophils was higher in group B compared to other studied groups in Ist trimester. There was an increase in expression of CD54 on resting neutrophils of group D when compared with C. A significant difference between Ist and IIIrd trimester was noticed in group A in expression of CD62L,CD62L/fMLP,CD54 on peripheral blood neutrophils, which were higher in the third trimester. Expression of CD62L was higher in the group A when compared to B.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Diabetes type 1 and pregnancy changed the percentage and MFI of neutrophil adhesion molecules.
