Evaluación de la embriotoxicidad de misoprostol utilizando el ensayo cultivo de embriones postimplantación

Background: Approximately 15% of misoprostol-induced-abortions may not be successful, leading to in utero exposure to the drug and to the induction of a series of defects including central nervous system, limb and visceral defects. A commonproposal is that the drug causes disruption of the fetal vas...

Fernanda Embryo culture techniques Misoprostol Teratology Toxicpotential Background: Approximately 15% of misoprostol-induced-abortions may not be successful, leading to in utero exposure to the drug and to the induction of a series of defects including central nervous system, limb and visceral defects. A commonproposal is that the drug causes disruption of the fetal vasculature leading to embryonic or fetal hypoxia. Aim: To evaluate the teratogenicity of misoprostol using the rat post-implantation embryo culture. Material and Methods: Rat embryos were collected at the beginning of organogenesis and cultured in rat serum containing misoprostol at concentrations of 200, 2,000 or 20,000 pg/ml. Functionality, morphology and morphometry parameters were evaluated. Results: Misoprostol induced a dose-dependent embryotoxic effect causing a decrease in embryo viability and function (poor vascular development and survival) and morphometry (alterations in branchial arches, heart and cephalic portions of the neural tube, among others). Conclusions: All the manifestations observed are indicative of the ability of misoprostol to directly induce developmental retardation and alterations.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSociedad Médica de SantiagoRevista médica de Chile v.139 n.5 20112011-05-01text/htmlhttp://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0034-98872011000500008es10.4067/S0034-98872011000500008
