Popis: Background Prediabetes (PD) is associated with intermediate hyperglycaemia, dyslipidaemia, reduced nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and moderate hypertension. All these factors are risk factor for preeclampsia (PE). However, the effects of the PD on placental function have not been shown. Accordingly, this study sought to investigate a possible link between maternal PD and the risk of developing PE.Methods Pregnant female Sprague-Dawley rats (N = 18) were divided into normal, preeclamptic and prediabetic groups (n = 6 in each group) to study the effects of maternal PD on placenta function over the period of 19 days. Blood glucose and blood pressure were measured on gestational day (GND) 0, 9 and 18. Placental vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), placenta growth factor (PlGF) and soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt-1) mRNA expression were measured terminally. Data were analysed using ANOVA followed by the Tukey–Kramer post hoc test. Values of p
