A toxemia-like syndrome was induced in pregnant beagles by intraperitoneal inoculation of concentrates prepared from placentas of patients with preeclampsia-eclampsia and hydatidiform mole, which contained an agent, Hydatoxi lualba, that stained in a unique fashion with toluidine blue-O-. The pregnant dogs inoculated with either of these concentrates progressively developed hypertension, eyeground changes consistent with hypertensive retinopathy, proteinuria, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and hepatic dysfunction in addition to intrauterine growth retardation and intrauterine fetal death. Hepatic periportal hemorrhage and glomeruloendotheliosis, lesions usually seen in preeclampsia-eclampsia, were also noted to occur in pregnant beagles inoculated with these concentrates. A significant increased sensitivity to angiotensin II infusion was also noted. The toxemia-like syndrome did not develop in pregnant beagles when inoculated in a similar fashion with concentrates prepared from placentas from normal term pregnancies which were free of Hydatoxi lualba or in nonpregnant beagles inoculated with concentrates containing Hydatoxi lualba. Although the agent was not injected in pure form, the inoculation of concentrates containing Hydatoxi lualba appears to be required for the manifestation of the toxemia-like syndrome.
