Thirty-one pregnant women with RSA and 27 normal early gravidas were investigated to detect the levels of Tim-3 and Gal-9 in villi and deciduas by Western blotting. Meanwhile, the concentration of interleukin(IL)-4 and IL-12 in peripheral blood plasma was determined by ELISA in 25 healthy fertile non-pregnant controls, the normal early gravidas and pregnant women with RSA mentioned above, respectively. It was found that the relative expression levels of Tim-3 and Gal-9 in villi and deciduas were significantly increased in pregnant women with RSA as compared with those in the normal early gravidas. The concentration of IL-4 in peripheral blood plasma of pregnant women with RSA was lower than that of the normal early gravidas(P〈0.05) and healthy fertile non-pregnant controls(P〈0.05), but that of IL-2 in pregnant women with RSA was significantly higher than that of the normal early gravidas(P〈0.05) and healthy fertile non-pregnant controls(P〈0.05). It was suggested that the overexpression of Tim-3/Gal-9 pathway may be related to the pathogenesis of RSA.展开更多

Four single nucleotide polymor- phisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of TIM4 were detected, including two new SNPs (at positions -1609, -153) and two reported SNPs (rs6874202, rs6882076). The frequency distribution of rs6882076 was different among different races (P〈0.05). In addition, linkage disequilibrium among the SNPs of the promoter region of TIM4 was found and GGTG was the predominant haplotype.
