This study analyzed the levels of peripheral blood tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Decorin (DCN) and Mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1) mRNA in neutrophils of patients with preeclampsia and their correlations, in order to provide more thoughts on the diagnosis and treatment of clinical patients. 81 patients with preeclampsia who had regular prenatal checkups and delivered in our hospital from June 2020 to April 2022 were analyzed, including 26 patients with early-onset and 55 patients with late-onset, and 50 pregnant women with normal pregnancy who had prenatal checkups and delivered in our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. Record the clinical data of patients, record the expression of peripheral blood TNF-α, DCN and neutrophils MAPK1 mRNA of patients with early-onset, late-onset and the control group, and record the correlation between DCN level, MAPK1 mRNA expression and TNF-α level of patients with preeclampsia. The diastolic and systolic blood pressures were significantly higher in early-onset and late-onset patients, and the gestational week of delivery was significantly lower in early-onset and late-onset patients, respectively ( < .05); there was no statistically significant difference in the average age, BMI, average pregnancy time, and average births between the three groups ( > .05). The expressions of peripheral blood TNF-α, DCN, and neutrophils MAPK1 mRNA of the early-onset and late-onset groups were all higher than those in the control group ( < .05); and the expressions of TNF-α, DCN, and MAPK1 mRNA in the peripheral blood of the early-onset group were all higher than those in the late-onset group ( < .05); correlation analysis showed that DCN level and TNF-α level in patients with preeclampsia were positively correlated ( = 0.98639, < .05); Neutrophils MAPK1 mRNA expression and TNF-α level were positively correlated ( = 0.9611, < .05). TNF-α, DCN and neutrophils MAPK1 mRNA were all highly expressed in the peripheral blood of patients with pre-eclampsia and were more significantly elevated in patients with early-onset preeclampsia, and the expression levels of DCN and MAPK1 mRNA were positively correlated with TNF-α levels. It is possible that all three factors are involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia, and are expected to be used as indicators for early prediction and diagnosis.
本研究分析了子痫前期患者中性粒细胞中外周血肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)、核心蛋白聚糖(DCN)和丝裂原活化蛋白激酶1(MAPK1)mRNA的水平及其相关性,以便为临床患者的诊断和治疗提供更多思路。分析了2020年6月至2022年4月在我院定期产检并分娩的81例子痫前期患者,其中早发型26例,晚发型55例,并选取同期在我院产检并分娩的50例正常孕妇作为对照组。记录患者的临床资料,记录早发型、晚发型患者及对照组外周血TNF-α、DCN及中性粒细胞MAPK1 mRNA的表达情况,记录子痫前期患者DCN水平、MAPK1 mRNA表达与TNF-α水平的相关性。早发型和晚发型患者的舒张压和收缩压均显著升高,早发型和晚发型患者的分娩孕周分别显著降低(<0.05);三组患者的平均年龄、BMI、平均妊娠时间和平均产次差异无统计学意义(>0.05)。早发型和晚发型组外周血TNF-α、DCN及中性粒细胞MAPK1 mRNA的表达均高于对照组(<0.05);早发型组外周血TNF-α、DCN及MAPK1 mRNA的表达均高于晚发型组(<0.05);相关性分析显示,子痫前期患者DCN水平与TNF-α水平呈正相关(=0.98639,<0.05);中性粒细胞MAPK1 mRNA表达与TNF-α水平呈正相关(=0.9611,<0.05)。TNF-α、DCN及中性粒细胞MAPK1 mRNA在子痫前期患者外周血中均高表达,在早发型子痫前期患者中升高更显著,且DCN和MAPK1 mRNA表达水平与TNF-α水平呈正相关。这三个因素可能均参与子痫前期的发病机制,有望作为早期预测和诊断指标。
