Journal Article
Preeclampsia and Kidney Disease: Deciphering Cause and Effect
2020
Overview
Purpose of ReviewPreeclampsia and chronic kidney disease have a complex, bidirectional relationship. Women with kidney disease, with even mild reductions in glomerular filtrate rate, have an increased risk of developing preeclampsia. Preeclampsia, in turn, has been implicated in the subsequent development of albuminuria, chronic kidney disease, and end-stage kidney disease. We will discuss observational evidence and mechanisms linking the two disease processes.Recent FindingsPreeclampsia is characterized by an imbalance in angiogenic factors that causes systemic endothelial dysfunction. Chronic kidney disease may predispose to the development of preeclampsia due to comorbid conditions, such as hypertension, but is also associated with impaired glycocalyx integrity and alterations in the complement and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone systems. Preeclampsia may lead to kidney disease by causing acute kidney injury, endothelial damage, and podocyte loss.SummaryPreeclampsia may be an important sex-specific risk factor for chronic kidney disease. Understanding how chronic kidney disease increases the risk of preeclampsia from a mechanistic standpoint may open the door to future biomarkers and therapeutics for all women.
