It activates coagulation and fuels the risk of thrombosis. Human pregnancy is associated with a mild proinflammatory state characterized by circulatory neutrophil activation which is further increased in complicated pregnancies, placenta-mediated complications being associated with an increased thrombotic risk. This aberrant activation leads to an increased release of nucleosomes in the blood flow. The aim of our study was to initially quantify nucleosome-bound histones in normal pregnancy and in placenta-mediated complication counterpart. We analyzed the role of histones on extravillous trophoblast function. Circulating nucleosome-bound histones H3 (Nu.QH3.1, Nu.QH3PanCit, Nu.QH3K27me3) and H4 (Nu.QH4K16Ac) were increased in complicated pregnancies. In vitro using the extravillous cell line HTR-8\/SVNeo, we observed that free recombinant H2B, H3, and H4 inhibited migration in wound healing assay, but only H3 also blocked invasion in Matrigel-coated Transwell experiments. H3 and H4 also induced apoptosis, whereas H2B did not. Finally, the negative effects of H3 on invasion and apoptosis could be restored with enoxaparin, a low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), but not with aspirin. Different circulating nucleosome-bound histones are increased in complicated pregnancy and this would affect migration, invasion, and induce apoptosis of extravillous trophoblasts. Histones might be part of the link between the risk of thrombosis and pregnancy complications, with an effect of LMWH on both.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0040-1722225","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,10]],"date-time":"2021-01-10T23:32:31Z","timestamp":1610321551000},"page":"877-890","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["NETosis Markers in Pregnancy: Effects Differ According to Histone Subtypes"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"121","author":[{"given":"Mathieu","family":"Fortier","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Haematology, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8808-8841","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sylvie","family":"Bouvier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Haematology, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"},{"name":"Research Laboratory EA 2992, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"},{"name":"Faculty of Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Vincent","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Haematology, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christophe","family":"Demattei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics, Public Health and Innovation in Methodology, N\u00eemes University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eve","family":"Mousty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marielle","family":"Herzog","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Belgian Volition SPRL, Parc Scientifique Crealys, Isnes, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Guillaume","family":"Rommelaere","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Belgian Volition SPRL, Parc Scientifique Crealys, Isnes, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eva","family":"Nouvellon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Haematology, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"},{"name":"Research Laboratory EA 2992, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric","family":"Mercier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Haematology, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"},{"name":"Research Laboratory EA 2992, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"},{"name":"Faculty of Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vincent","family":"Letouzey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"},{"name":"Department of Artificial Polymers, Max Mousseron Institute of Biomolecules, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9899-9910","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jean-Christophe","family":"Gris","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Haematology, University Hospital, N\u00eemes, France"},{"name":"Research Laboratory EA 2992, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"},{"name":"Faculty of Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences, Montpellier University, Montpellier, France"},{"name":"Department of Gynecology, I.
