RESUMEN
Las enfermedades reumáticas forman un conjunto de patologías en las que intervienen múltiples factores, endocrinos, inmunológicos y moleculares y se caracterizan por deterioro progresivo de los pacientes. Por otro lado, el embarazo es un evento en donde existe modificación transitoria del sistema inmunitario y endocrino, con predominio de la inmunidad humoral y producción de anticuerpos sobre la inmunidad mediada por células. Esto nos da una base para explicar los cambios clínicos en artritis reumatoide y lupus eritematoso sistémico (que son las enfermedades reumáticas más comunes y representativas) y también nos da idea de las modificaciones moleculares que se presentan en este evento reproductivo. Por una parte existe mejoría clínica evidente de las mujeres embarazadas que cursan con artritis reumatoide y por otra se presenta exacerbación, de carácter variable, en el caso del lupus eritematoso sistémico. En este artículo discutimos los aspectos inmunológicos, hormonales y moleculares que se presentan en el embarazo normal y en aquellos que cursan con artritis reumatoide o lupus eritematoso sistémico, tratando de esclarecer la fisiología y fisiopatología molecular del fenómeno embarazo-enfermedades reumáticas.
