Abstract:
Objective To analyze the relationship between the expression of serum DNA methyltransferase 1(DNMT1)messenger RNA(mRNA)and long non-coding RNA(LncRNA)urothelial carcinoembryonic antigen 1(UCA1)levels and pregnancy outcomes in patients with hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy(HDCP).Methods A total of 195 HDCP patients treated in Handan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from March 2021 to August 2023 were selected as the case group,and 195 healthy pregnant women were regarded as the control group.Clinical data of all pregnant women were collected,and biochemical indicators were detected 1 day before delivery.Serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The case group was divided into pregnancy induced hypertension(PIH)group,mild preeclampsia(PE)group,and severe PE group based on their condition.HDCP patients were divided into good pregnancy outcome group and bad pregnancy outcome group according to the adverse pregnancy outcome at delivery.Clinical data,biochemical indexes,serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels were compared between control group and case group.The serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels of HDCP patients with different severity were compared.The clinical data,biochemical indexes,serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels of HDCP patients with different pregnancy outcomes were compared.The correlation between serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 in HDCP patients,factors affecting pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients,and the predictive value of serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 in adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients were analyzed.Results Compared with control group,the levels of systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure and white blood cell count in case group were increased,while the levels of serum DNMT1 mRNA(0.72±0.18 vs 1.00±0.04)and LncRNA UCA1(0.61±0.16 vs 1.00±0.02)were decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=40.651,32.595,7.837,21.205,33.775,all P＜0.001).Serum DNMT1 mRNA(0.85±0.20,0.74±0.18,0.50±0.15)and LncRNA UCA1(0.77±0.18,0.58±0.16,0.43±0.13)levels in PIH group,mild PE group and severe PE group were decreased successively,and the differeences were statistically significant(F=52.687,64.030,all P＜0.001).Serum DNMT1 mRNA in HDCP patients was positively correlated with LncRNA UCA1(r=0.582,P＜0.001).Compared with good pregnancy outcome group,the severity of HDCP,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure and white blood cell count were increased in the bad pregnancy outcome group,and the serum DNMT1 mRNA(0.80±0.20 vs 0.59±0.15)and LncRNA UCA1(0.72±0.17 vs 0.43±0.14)levels were decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(x2=18.386,t=2.615～12.290,all P＜0.05).Severe PE[OR(95％CI)=1.708(1.193～2.445)],systolic blood pressure[OR(95％CI)=1.495(1.090～2.049)]and diastolic blood pressure[OR(95％CI)=1.621(1.076～2.442)]were risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients,while DNMT1 mRNA[OR(95％CI)=0.833(0.725～0.957)]and LncRNA UCA1[OR(95％CI)=0.796(0.696～0.909)]were protective factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients(all P＜0.05).The area under curve(AUC)predicted by the combination of DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients was greater than that predicted by DNMT1 mRNA alone and LncRNA UCA1 alone(0.926 vs 0.832,0.844),and the differences were statistically significant(Z=2.932,2.345,all P＜0.05).Conclusion Both serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels are low in HDCP patients,which is related to the degree of disease and pregnancy outcome.DNMT1 mRNA combined with LncRNA UCA1 detection may have a better predictive effect on adverse pregnancy outcome.
