    Description / Table of Contents: Summary We studied the excretion of prostaglandin (PG) E2 and of PGF2α in 172 healthy newborns during the first week of life to detect possible biochemical markers for the individual susceptibility to hypertension. PG excretion was compared to urinary electrolytes, urinary osmolality, and blood pressure. In addition, blood pressure of the newborns was related to the blood pressure of the mothers and to the history of hypertension in parents and/or grandparents. PGE2-excretion increased from 0.7 ng/mg creatinine on the third day to 1.5 ng on the fifth day of life (p〈0.001) while PGF2α excretion remained unchanged at 2 ng/mg creatinine. PGE2 (but not PGF2α) was inversely correlated to urinary osmolality (p〈0.001) while urinary potassium was positively correlated to PGF2α (p〈0.001). On the fifth day of life systolic blood pressure of the newborns was correlated to PGF2α-excretion and to systolic blood pressure of the mother (p〈0.05). Blood pressure was significantly higher in newborns with a history of hypertension in parents or grandparents than in those without hypertension in relatives (p〈0.02). The data suggest that renal PG:s are involved in the regulation of urinary osmolality and potassium excretion in the neonate. The positive correlation between PGF2α excretion and blood pressure may indicate a genetically determined PG-related renal influence on the level of systemic blood pressure.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Auf der Suche nach einem biochemischen Parameter als Marker für die Hypertonie-Gefährdung wurde bei 172 gesunden Neugeborenen am 3. und 5. Lebenstag die Ausscheidung von PGE2 und von PGF2α gemessen und mit dem Blutdruck, der Elektrolytausscheidung sowie der Urinosmolalität verglichen. Daneben wurde der Blutdruck der Neugeborenen in Beziehung gesetzt zum Blutdruck der Mutter und zur Hypertonie-Anamnese in den Familien der Eltern. Die PGE2-Ausscheidung stieg von 0,7 ng/mg Kreatinin am 3. Tag auf 1,5 am 5. Tag (p〈0,001), während die PGF2α-Exkretion bei 2 ng/mg Kreatinin konstant blieb. Es bestand eine inverse Korrelation zwischen PGE2 und der Urinosmolalität (p〈0,001), während die Kalium-Ausscheidung positiv zur PGF2α-Exkretion korreliert war (p〈0,001). Am 5. Lebenstag war der systolische Blutdruck der Neugeborenen signifikant korreliert zu der PGF2α-Ausscheidung (p〈0,05). Es bestand weiterhin eine positive Korrelation des systolischen Blutdrucks der Neugeborenen zum systolischen Blutdruck der Mütter (p〈0,05). Der Blutdruck bei Neugeborenen mit Hypertonie in der Familienanamnese war bereits in der ersten Lebenswoche signifikant höher als der Blutdruck bei Kindern ohne Hypertonie bei Eltern und/oder Großeltern. Die Untersuchungen deuten darauf hin, daß beim Neugeborenen renale Prostaglandine bei der Regulation der Urinosmolalität und der Kalium-Ausscheidung beteiligt sind. Die positive Korrelation zwischen PGF2α-Ausscheidung und Blutdruck wird als möglicher Marker eines genetisch determinierten Einflusses des renalen PG-Systems auf die Blutdruckregulation gedeutet.

    Notes: Abstract The relationships between urinary prostaglandins (PGs)E2 and F2α and the postnatal development of blood pressure and renal concentrating capacity were investigated in 14 pre-term and 32 full term healthy infants. Mean PGE2 and PGF2α excretion was 18.9 and 10.1 ng/h/1.73 m2, respectively, in pre-term infants. In full term infants mean urinary PGE2 was signifincantly lower (13.4 ng/h/1.73 m2) and PGF2α significantly higher (22.2 ng/h/1.73 m2). The decrease of the PGE2/PGF2α ratio (P〈0.001) was accompanied by an increase in blood pressure. High PGE2 levels in pre-term infants were inversely correlated with urinary cAMP excretion. A decreasing PGE2/PGF2α ratio in full term infants was associated with increasing urinary osmolality. After intranasal administration of antidiuretic hormone (DDAVP) in 8 full term infants the increase in urinary osmolality and cAMP excretion was accompanied by a drop in PGE2 excretion to less than half the basal values. These findings suggests that the postnatal changes in urinary PG excretion are associated with a concomittant increase in blood pressure and in the concentrating capacity of the neonatal kidney.
