Abstract
Preeclampsia is a multisystem pregnancy disorder that is characterized by different degrees of placental malperfusion, with release of antiangiogenic factors into the circulation, leading to maternal vascular endothelial injury and high blood pressure. As a major cause of maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity worldwide, once preeclampsia has been diagnosed, there are no curative treatments except for delivery. Lipids serve as ubiquitous and multifunctional metabolites that are integral and essential to many diverse functions on both a cellular and organismal level. Lipid metabolic abnormalities have emerged as potential risk factors for the development and progression of preeclampsia. This review comprehensively examines decades of discovery to illuminate the roles of lipids and dysregulation in the levels of various lipid classes in preeclampsia. In addition, the roles of lipids are summarized to further understand the pathogenic mechanisms of preeclampsia. Overall, the review highlights the promising potential of pathophysiology and lipid-targeting therapeutic strategies in preeclampsia.
