Abstract:
Objective To comparative the expression of suppressors of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) in placental tissues between premature delivery and term delivery,and to evaluate the significance of SOCS3 in premature-delivered placental tissues.Meth ods Retrospective analysis was made on 30 patients who had spontaneous premature delivery and 30 pregnant women with normal delivery from February 2013 to October 2013 in our hospital.Reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expressions of SOCS3,interferon-α(IFN-α),and interleukin-10 (IL-10).Western-blot was used to detect protein expression of SOCS3,and to analyze the balance of Th1/Th2.Results PCR detection showed that SOCS3-mRNA in the control group was significantly lower than that in the experimental group (P ＜ 0.01).Western-blot test showed that SOCS3 protein expression in the control group was significantly lower than that in the experimental group (P ＜ 0.01).The expression of SOCS3 gene was consistent with its protein expression.PCR detected the significant increase of IFN-α with the secretion of Th1 cytokine,significant decrease of IL-10 with secretion of Th2 cytokine (P ＜ 0.05),and the balance deviation of Th1/Th2 toward Th1.Conclusions SOCS3 is associated with premature delivery,which mechanism might be involved in regulation of the immune balance through janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling pathways.
