Abstract:
Objective:To explore the clinical significance of serum nuclear factor κ B, interleukin(IL)-4, IL-10, IL-12, interferon(IFN)- γ expression in subclinical hypothyroidism with gestational diabetes mellitus.Methods:Thirty pregnant women with subclinical hypothyroidism combined with gestational diabetes mellitus in Tangshan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2017 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed as group A. Thirty three pregnant women with subclinical hypothyroidism were selected as group B, 35 pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus as group C and 40 healthy pregnant women as control group.ELISA was used to detect NF-κB, IL-4, IL-10, IL-12 and IFN-γ, and the results were analyzed and compared.Results:The serum levels of NF-κB were (15.91±5.68), (13.22±5.23), (12.97±5.11), (9.74±3.85) μg/L, IL-12 were (28.91±6.84), (21.64±5.72), (22.23±5.91), (13.68±3.76) ng/L, and serum IFN-γ levels were (23.74±5.55), (18.26±4.63), (17.85±4.31), (12.69±3.85) ng/L in A, B, C and the control group respectively.There were statistically significant differences in the three indicators between groups ( F=5.118, 6.821, 7.133, all P<0.05), and group A was higher than group B, C and control, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05); the levels of serum IL-4 in group A, B, C and control group were (8.91±3.99), (10.84±4.47), (11.27±4.62), (13.68±5.46) ng/L, respectively.The levels of serum IL-10 were (10.91±3.86), (13.05±4.58), (12.83±4.69), (15.82±5.33) ng/L, respectively.The differences of serum IL-4 and IL-10 between groups were statistically significant ( F=5.075, 5.616, all P<0.05), and serum IL-4 and IL-10 in group A were lower than those in group B, group C and control group.The levels of serum IL-4 and IL-10 in group B and C were lower than those in control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The activation of NF-kB signaling pathway and its related cytokines may be the influencing factors for the development of subclinical hypothyroidism with gestational diabetes mellitus.
