Objective The purpose of the work was to study the distribution of NOS 3 in term placenta of normal pregnancy and pregnancy-induced hypertension(PIH) and its effect on the feto-placental circulation.Method The NOS 3 distribution and levels were detected by indirect immunofluorescent method in 26 term placentas including 10 normal term placentas and 16 PIH term placentas.Results A significant difference in distribution of NOS 3 was found neither between normal pregnancy and PIH,nor between mild and severe PIH.A weakened fluorescent light was found in PIH group.Conclusions For term placenta,NOS 3 locates in endothelium of umbilical vessels and syncytiotrophoblast.The decreased concentration of NOS 3 in placenta maybe plays an important role in etiology of PIH.
