OBJECTIVE: Reduction in uteroplacental perfusion (RUPP) in pregnant rats is associated with hypertension, elevated cytokines, and activation of the endothelin (ET-1) system Our objective was to determine whether the anti inflammatory properties of 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproale (17 OHP) reduce cylokine-stimulated vasoactive pathways that are associated with hypertension in response to placental ischemia.STUDY DESIGN: Mean arterial pressure (MAP), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin (IL)-6, and renal ET-1 were measured in the following pregnant controls, pregnant controls plus 17 OHP (6 6 mg/kg), RUPP rats, and RUPP rats plus 17 OHPRESULTS: MAP increased 29 mm Hg in RUPP rats compared with pregnant controls (P
