RESUMO
ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Bushen Huoxue enema in treating the rat model of kidney deficiency and blood stasis-thin endometrium （KDBS-TE） by transcriptome sequencing. MethodThe rat model of KDBS-TE was established by administration of tripterygium polyglycosides tablets combined with subcutaneous injection of adrenaline. The pathological changes of rat endometrium in each group were then observed. Three uterine tissue specimens from each of the blank group， model group， and Bushen Huoxue enema group were randomly selected for transcriptome sequencing. The differentially expressed circRNAs， lncRNAs， and miRNAs were screened， and the disease-related specific competitive endogenous RNA （ceRNA） regulatory network was constructed. Furthermore， the gene ontology （GO） functional annotation and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment were performed for the mRNAs in the network. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group showed endometrial dysplasia， decreased endometrial thickness and endometrial/total uterine wall thickness ratio （P<0.01）， and differential expression of 18 circRNAs， 410 lncRNAs， and 7 miRNAs. Compared with the model group， the enema and estradiol valerate groups showed improved endometrial morphology and increased endometrial thickness and ratio of endometrial to total uterine wall thickness （P<0.05）. In addition， 21 circRNAs， 518 lncRNAs， and 17 miRNAs were differentially expressed in the enema group. The disease-related specific circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network composed of 629 nodes and 664 edges contained 2 circRNAs， 34 miRNAs， and 593 mRNAs. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network composed of 180 nodes and 212 edges contained 5 lncRNAs， 10 miRNAs， and 164 mRNAs. The mNRAs were mainly enriched in Hippo signaling pathway， autophagy-animal， axon guidance， etc. ConclusionBushen Huoxue enema can treat KDBS-TE in rats by regulating specific circRNAs， lncRNAs， and miRNAs in the uterus and the ceRNA network.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effect of the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) intervention on the pregnancy outcomes of patients with a history of spontaneous abortion due to kidney deficiency syndrome.Methods:From February 2015 to July 2020, 41 patients with a history of spontaneous abortion due to kidney deficiency in our hospital were selected as the observation group, and 42 healthy pregnant women with no history of spontaneous abortion were selected as the control group. The observation group was treated with the TCM sequential intervention therapy with treatment principles of nourishing the kidney and promoting blood circulation before pregnancy and solidifying the kidney and tonifying after pregnancy, while the control group received no TCM intervention before and after pregnancy. Color Doppler ultrasonography was used to record the follicle diameter, endometrial thickness and shape during pregnancy, and B-ultrasound was used to monitor the NT value at 12 weeks. The serum D-dimer level was detected by ELISA, and the serum progesterone ,estradiol, human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) levels were detected by radioimmunoassay. The conditions of term delivery, premature delivery and abortion were observed in both groups, and the successful delivery rate and term delivery rate were compared.Results:On the 30+, 40+, and 50+ days of pregnancy, there was no significant difference in serum progesterone, estradiol, and HCG levels between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in NT value between the two groups at 12 weeks of gestation ( P>0.05). The successful delivery rate of the observation group was 90.2% (37/41), the full-term delivery rate was 85.4% (35/41), the successful delivery rate of the control group was 100.0% (42/42), and the full-term delivery rate was 95.2% (40/42), there was no significant difference in the successful delivery rate and term delivery rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The sequential intervention of TCM the principle of invigorating kidney and promoting blood circulation before pregnancy and strengthening kidney and calming fetus after pregnancy can improve the pregnancy outcome of spontaneous abortion patients with kidney deficiency syndrome.
