目的研究胰岛素样生长因子2(insulin like growth factor2,Igf2)基因的印迹状态及其表达在早期自然流产中的作用。方法选择2010年2月至2011年2月在中国医科大学附属盛京医院节育门诊就诊孕妇60例,采用PCR结合限制性片段长度多态性分析(restriction fragment length polymorphism,RFLP)技术,分析25例正常早孕、35例早孕自然流产绒毛组织中Igf2基因印迹丢失(loss of imprinting,LOI)情况;采用荧光定量PCR方法检测两种绒毛组织Igf2基因mRNA的表达。结果正常绒毛组织中Igf2基因型为杂合子的样本有11例,其中4例被检测出印迹丢失;自然流产绒毛组织中Igf2基因型为杂合子的样本有16例,其中6例被检测出印迹丢失,二者相比差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。自然流产绒毛组织中Igf2基因mRNA的表达量为(2.29±0.60)×103copy/μgRNA,明显低于正常绒毛组织中Igf2基因的表达量(3.15±0.88)×103copy/μgRNA,两者比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.001)。结论 Igf2基因的印迹丢失与自然流产无关,Igf2基因mRNA的表达降低与自然流产有关,在早期自然流产发生中可能存在其他机制调节Igf2基因的表达。 相似文献
A case of viral placentitis, In a 20 year-old pregnant woman suffering from chronic glomerulonephritis, was presented. In light microscopic findings of the placenta, many necrotic foci with intranuclear Inclusion- bearing cells revealed in chorionic villi and by electron microscopy numerous immature and mature virus particles, probably herpes simplex were proved in intranuclear inclusion-bearing cells. 相似文献
: To analyze prospectively the effects of blood transfusion administered during radiotherapy (RT) on the immune function of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer.
: In a total of 15 patients, 7 transfused and 8 untransfused, lymphocyte populations, including CD3+, CD4+, and CD8+ T-cell subsets, B cells (CD19+), and natural killer (NK) cells (CD56+, CD16+, CD3−) were studied before (i.e., time 0), during (i.e., times 1 and 2), and after (i.e., time 3) therapy. Expression of the early (CD25) and late (HLA-DR) activation markers on CD3+ T cells, the intracellular levels of perforin in CD8+ and CD56+ cells, and interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-2, and IL-4 in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were also measured. NK cell cytotoxicity against the NK-sensitive target K-562 cells and CD8+ T-cell-directed cytotoxicity against OKT3 hybridoma cells were also assessed. Finally, the plasma levels of the immunoregulatory cytokine IL-10 were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
: The mean absolute number of all lymphocyte subsets compared with pretreatment levels decreased significantly during RT of both transfused and untransfused patients (p >0.001), with no detectable differences between the two groups in terms of total lymphocytes or relative numbers of CD3+ and CD4+ T cells, CD56+ NK cells, or CD19+ B cells. In contrast, concomitant with an inversion of the CD4/CD8 ratio, a significant increase in the number of CD8+ T cells at time 2 and CD3+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and NK cells at time 3 was found in the transfused patients compared with the untransfused group. The percentages of CD25+/CD3+ T cells and HLA-DR+/CD3+ T cells increased during RT of the untransfused patients, but CD3+ T cells showed decreased CD25 expression and increased HLA-DR expression in the transfused group. An increase of CD8+ IFN-γ+ T cells with a concomitant decrease in CD8+ IL-2+ T cells was found in the transfused vs. untransfused group, and no differences were noted in the percentage of CD4+ IFN-γ+ T cells and CD4+ IL-2+ T cells. The proportion of perforin-positive CD8+ and CD56+ cells was higher in the transfused group than in the untransfused group. However, CD56+ cells and CD8+ T cells from the transfused patients showed markedly diminished cytotoxic function. Finally, IL-10 was detected only in the plasma of the transfused patients.
: Blood transfusion during primary RT for cervical cancer profoundly alters the magnitude and characteristics of radiation-induced immunosuppression. Elevated serum IL-10 in transfused patients may play a role in the disregulation of lymphocyte function, in particular, the depression of NK- and T-cell cytotoxicity. Investigation of alternatives to blood transfusion during RT that do not diminish host immunity is warranted. 相似文献
In normal human pregnancy glucose tolerance deteriorates gradually in spite of a steady increase in plasma insulin levels. To see whether this change in insulin resistance is accompanied by changes in insulin receptor binding, insulin binding to monocytes and erythrocytes was measured serially during pregnancy and again post-partum in fifteen normal women. Insulin binding to monocytes increased from week 12 to week 24 of gestation (P less than 0.001) and it decreased from week 32 to week 36 (P less than 0.05). After delivery a new increase in insulin binding to monocytes was seen (P less than 0.05). Insulin binding to erythrocytes increased from week 30-32 to week 36 (P less than 0.05), decreased from week 36 to delivery (P less than 0.01) and decreased further post-partum (P less than 0.001). Insulin receptor binding was not significantly correlated to plasma insulin, estradiol, estriol, progesterone or cortisol. The insulin receptor binding to monocytes, but not to erythrocytes, paralleled the insulin resistance found in human pregnancy. 相似文献
