Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of transforming growth factor-?2(TGF-?2) on production of tumor necrosis factor -? (TNF-?) and interferon-? (IFN-?) from placenta of patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). Methods Villous explants from 10 ICP patients(ICP group) and 10 normal gravidae (control group) were cultured in vitro. The concentrations of TNF-? and IFN-? in the culture medium were determined by enzyme linked immunoadsorbent assay ( ELISA) after incubation with different concentrations of TGF-?2 for 1,24 and 48 hours. Results (1) After cultured for 1,24 and 48 hours, TNF-? level in ICP group was (771 ? 187)pg/g, (2 490 ?575)pg/g,and (3339 ? 1106)pg/g, respectively, while IFN-? level was (931 ? 148) pg/g, (1888 ? 545) pg/g, and (3027 ? 667) pg/g, respectively. All were significantly higher than those in the normal group (P
