Urinary Serotonin and 5-Hydroxyindolacetic Acid Levels in Preeclampsia

The role of serotonin in the pathogenesis of hypertension which is one of the main symptoms of preeclampsia is of growing importance. The levels of serotonin (5-Hydroxytryptamin or 5-HT) and its metabolite, 5-Hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA) in twenty-four hour urine samples taken from severe preeclamptic and normotensive pregnant women were determined by colon chromotography and spectrophotometry.
