Serum concentrations of the heterodimeric glycoprotein inhibin-A (alpha-beta A) and its alpha-subunit increase during pregnancy. The placenta is the predominant source of inhibin during pregnancy, and a paracrine role in the trophoblast has been suggested. Elevated serum concentrations of inhibin alpha-subunit as well as the glycoprotein human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) have been described in preeclamptic pregnancy. The objectives of this investigation were to compare serum concentrations of inhibin-A and inhibin pro-alpha C in preeclamptic and normotensive pregnancy, and to examine the relationship of hCG and inhibin-A in those pregnancies.
