Description

Application of KS in follicular fluid as EM diagnosis and pregnancy outcome assessment marker
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of assisted reproduction, and particularly relates to application of human tissue kallikrein binding protein (KS) in follicular fluid as an Endometriosis (EM) diagnosis and pregnancy outcome assessment marker.
Background
At present, the incidence rate of global infertility is higher and higher, and more infertile patients obtain their own offspring by means of the assisted reproduction technology ART (tube baby). In particular, women with Endometriosis (EM) have a higher incidence of infertility. Although ART technology is well established, there is currently no non-invasive indicator of predicting pregnancy outcome in EM patients prior to embryo implantation.
Follicular Fluid (FF) provides an environment for oocyte growth and maturation and plays a key role in ovulation, subsequent fertilization, and early embryo development. Human tissue kallikrein binding protein (KS) is an endogenous protein for regulating differential signaling, and has multiple biological functions of inhibiting inflammation, angiogenesis, oxidative stress, apoptosis, tumor growth, transfer of animal models and cultured cells and the like.

Detailed Description
In order that the invention may be more fully understood, reference will now be made to the following description. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete.
Example 1 expression of Kallistatin protein in follicular fluid of EM patients undergoing assisted reproduction and non-EM patients
Under the knowledge of the patient, female infertility patients who are subjected to in-vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET) assisted pregnancy at the reproductive center of the third hospital affiliated to Guangzhou medical university from 7 months to 8 months in 2017 are selected, and follicular fluid of the patients on the day of taking eggs is collected for experiment. All patient inclusion criteria: (1) the age is less than 33 years; (2) hormone therapy is not received at least 6 months prior to surgery; (3) women with polycystic ovary syndrome, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, HIV infection or any active infection and autoimmune disease were excluded. Among them, 40 EM patients were selected as an experimental group, and 40 non-EM patients who underwent assisted reproduction were selected as a control group. Collecting follicular fluid obtained by two groups of patients, detecting the expression level of Kallistatin in follicular fluid by ELISA method, comparing between groups, and making ROC curve.
1. Collecting and extracting follicular fluid
And FF is preserved when the oocyte is taken, so that blood pollution is avoided. FF samples from each patient were collected from the follicles and KS concentration measurements were performed. Pooled FFs were centrifuged at 1500g for 10 min to eliminate red blood cells and cell debris. Collecting supernatant, storing at-20 deg.C, and detecting.
2. ELISA method for detecting expression of Kallistatin in follicular fluid
KS levels in follicular fluid of EM patients and those without EM were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the kit was purchased from R & D (cat # DY 1669). The procedure was performed using 96-well plates, following the exact procedure as described. OD values of the standard and each well of the specimen were read at a wavelength of 450nm by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Finland Leber), and the concentration of each specimen KS was obtained by referring to the standard curve.
3. Prediction model-ROC curve making
And drawing a receiver working characteristic curve ROC, wherein the receiver working characteristic curve is a coordinate graph formed by taking the probability of false positive as a horizontal axis and the probability of true positive as a vertical axis, and is drawn by different results obtained by the receiver under a specific stimulation condition by adopting different judgment standards. The ROC curves were generated using the SPSS software.
4. The result of the detection
4.1 expression of Kallistatin protein in follicular fluid of EM patients
TABLE 1 comparison of sex hormone and KS concentrations in EM patients versus controls
Figure 20622DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
As shown in Table 1, the concentrations of LH, FSH, P, T, E2 and AMH in EM patients were not significantly different from those in the control group. However, the KS concentration in the follicular fluid of EM patients in the experimental group was 281.67 + -104.60 pg/ml, which is significantly lower than that in the control group (490.70 + -216.33 pg/ml) (p < 0.05). That is, the expression level of Kallistatin protein in follicular fluid of EM patients is significantly reduced compared to non-EM patients.
4.2 ART outcome characteristics of EM patients versus controls
TABLE 2 comparison of ART outcome characteristics of EM patients with controls
Figure 941305DEST_PATH_IMAGE004
As can be seen from Table 1, the AFC, Gn doses, endometrial thickness, number of eggs obtained, cleavage rate and number of embryos transferred were similar for both groups. However, the fertilization rate, the usable embryo rate and the good embryo rate of EM patients are all significantly lower than those of the control group. I.e., the ART laboratory outcome of EM patients is even worse. It is predicted that KS may play an important role in the assisted reproductive and pregnancy.
4.3 success rate of pregnancy
The clinical pregnancy rate of the EM group is 61.54%, which is significantly lower than 67.57% of the control group.
Example 2 expression of Kallistatin protein in follicular fluid of subjects with different pregnancy fates
On the basis of example 1, the expression of Kallistatin protein in follicular fluid of the pregnancy success group and the pregnancy failure group was further analyzed by comparison, and as a result, as shown in fig. 1, it was found that the concentration of KS in follicular fluid of the pregnancy success group was significantly higher than that of follicular fluid of the pregnancy failure group, as shown in both the EM group (see fig. 1 (B)) and the control group (see fig. 1 (a)). Taken together, the KS concentration in follicular fluid from the group with successful pregnancy was also significantly higher than that from the group with failed pregnancy (p < 0.05; see FIG. 1 (C)).
Example 3 expression of Kallistatin protein in follicular fluid and ART pregnancy outcome of ROC analysis
To assess the potential of KS concentration in follicular fluid to predict clinical pregnancy, Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted as shown in fig. 2, and the area under the curve (AUC) values were determined with the highest specificity and sensitivity as the best prediction point. It is known that the optimal predicted point, sensitivity, specificity and AUC values are 292.78 pg/ml, 71.7%, 65% and 0.7279, respectively, with p value = 0.0024. The result shows that the KS concentration in the follicular fluid can be used as a new index for predicting the pregnancy outcome of the endometriosis female in assisted reproduction and assisted pregnancy.
