摘要
目的:研究细胞因子及相关基因在妊娠高血压综合征(简称妊高征)胎盘和正常胎盘组织中的表达差异。方法:以包含220余种人类细胞因子相关基因cDNA片段的基因芯片,检测严格配伍的妊高征和正常胎盘组织中基因表达谱的差异。结果:除白细胞介素和肿瘤坏死因子(受体)基因超家族外,39种细胞因子和15种细胞因子受体基因在妊高征和正常胎盘组织中的表达水平存在2倍以上的差距,且绝大多数表现为在妊高征胎盘组织中的表达增高。结论:胎盘中细胞因子相关基因的强烈表达可能与妊高征的病理发生关系密切。
Objective: To study the difference of cytokine - associated genes expression in placenta from normal parturients and patients with pregnancy - induced hypertension (PIH) . Methods: The mRNA content of cytokine - associated genes in placenta was assayed by a complementary DNA segment representing over 220 cytokine - associated genes. Results: Over twice difference of the expression of 39 cytokines and 15 cytokine receptor genes, with interleukin and tumor necrosis factor (receptor) gene super family not included, was found between placental tissues from normal parturients and those from patients with PIHS. And most of these genes were up - regulated in placenta with PIHS. Conclusion: The up - regulation of cytokine - associated genes expression in placenta might be closely related to the pathogenesis of PIHS.
