Although preeclampsia (PE) is a major cause of maternal and fetal mortality, its pathogenesis is not fully understood. Digitalis-like cardiotonic steroids (CTS) are believed to be involved in the pathophysiology of PE, as illustrated by clinical observations that DIGIBIND, a digoxin antibody which binds CTS, lowers blood pressure in PE. Recently we reported that plasma levels of marinobufagenin (MBG), a vasoconstrictor CTS, are increased fourfold in patients with severe PE. In the present study, we tested whether anti-MBG, or anti-ouabain antibodies, or DIGIBIND can reverse inhibition of erythrocyte Na/K-ATPase (NKA) from patients with mild PE (blood pressure, 149 +/- 3/93 +/- 3 mm Hg; age, 28 +/- 2 years; gestational age, 37 +/- 1 weeks). Development of PE was associated with twofold rise in plasma MBG levels (1.58 +/- 0.15 vs. 0.80 +/- 0.11 nmol/L; P
