RESUMO

Mutations in the interleukin-7 receptor (IL7R) or the Janus kinase 3 (JAK3) kinase occur frequently in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and both are able to drive cellular transformation and the development of T-ALL in mouse models. However, the signal transduction pathways downstream of JAK3 mutations remain poorly characterized. Here we describe the phosphoproteome downstream of the JAK3(L857Q)/(M511I) activating mutations in transformed Ba/F3 lymphocyte cells. Signaling pathways regulated by JAK3 mutants were assessed following acute inhibition of JAK1/JAK3 using the JAK kinase inhibitors ruxolitinib or tofacitinib. Comprehensive network interrogation using the phosphoproteomic signatures identified significant changes in pathways regulating cell cycle, translation initiation, mitogen-activated protein kinase and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT signaling, RNA metabolism, as well as epigenetic and apoptotic processes. Key regulatory proteins within pathways that showed altered phosphorylation following JAK inhibition were targeted using selumetinib and trametinib (MEK), buparlisib (PI3K) and ABT-199 (BCL2), and found to be synergistic in combination with JAK kinase inhibitors in primary T-ALL samples harboring JAK3 mutations. These data provide the first detailed molecular characterization of the downstream signaling pathways regulated by JAK3 mutations and provide further understanding into the oncogenic processes regulated by constitutive kinase activation aiding in the development of improved combinatorial treatment regimens.

RESUMO

A highly negatively charged binuclear ZrIV-substituted Keggin polyoxometalate [{α-PW11O39Zr(µ-OH)(H2O)}2]8- (ZrK 2 : 2) has been shown to promote the hydrolytic cleavage of phosphoester bonds in the supercoiled plasmid pUC19 DNA under physiological pH and temperature, giving relaxed and linear forms of pUC19 as hydrolysis products. The interaction between ZrK 2 : 2 and DNA was experimentally proven by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and 31P diffusion ordered NMR spectroscopy.

RESUMO

Conservative management of ectopic pregnancy is important because it allows preservation of the fallopian tube. It has been reported to result in extratubal secondary trophoblastic implants (ESTI) in 3% to 22% of cases. The aim of this case report is to highlight the factors predicting the risk of ESTI.

RESUMO

This contribution summarize ten years of in vitro fertilization of clinical work. Activity growth, improvements of results (mean fertilization rate increased from 45% to 58%, fertilization failure dropped from 18% to 7%, pregnancy chances gains 9% to reach 44% per trial) and new treatments possibilities (severe male infertility) thanks to the ICSI technic were the major characteristics of this last ten years. The original anonymous oocyte donation program with donors permutation initiated as soon as 1990 has imposed itself due to it's exceptional efficiency with a pregnancy rate of 95% per oocyte pick up on a population of 46 donors and 145 recipient cycles. Thanks to the large population studied (4028 cycles, 1071 pregnancies), the tendencies in human fecundity (impact of age) and the risks linked to multiples pregnancies could be highlighted, stressing the importance of future developments presented in the other contributions following this general presentation of results.

RESUMO

The risk of multiple pregnancy after IVF needs to be drastically reduced. Several policies can be applied including the transfer of a maximum of three embryos to all patients, the fertilization of a maximum of three oocytes or a selective reduction of the number of transferred embryos. The first policy previously applied at the Fertility Clinic at Erasme Hospital until 1996, transferred two good quality embryos to patients with at least three good embryos. If this policy demonstrated that patients with two transferred embryos had similar chances of pregnancies compared to patients with three transferred embryos, it failed to sufficiently decrease the number of multiple pregnancies. The second policy applied since 1997, transferring a maximum of two average or good embryos to all patients aged under 35 years and with less than 3 previous attempts, demonstrated that while preserving the chances of pregnancy for these patients, it decreased by 20% the number of multiple pregnancies and almost eliminated triplets. With the improvement of culture media, it is now possible to culture embryos in vitro for a longer period and therefore transfer embryos with proven viability at a time corresponding more to in vivo physiological conditions. The implantation rates for these embryos, for patients with at least 4 previous attempts can reach 40%. If these results persist, it would be possible to transfer blastocysts to all patients and perhaps move on to the replacement of a single embryo, a policy that will practically eradicate all multiple pregnancies.

RESUMO

A first elective transfer policy of two embryos based solely on embryo morphology was compared to a more restrictive policy transferring two embryos to all patients aged < 35 years with less than three previous cycles to reduce the incidence of multiple pregnancies. With a significant reduction in the number of triple transfers from 72.4 to 44.3%, the delivery rates were similar for both policies, 31 and 32.1%. However, the multiple pregnancy rates per transfer significantly decreased from 12.5 to 7.8% (P < 0.05). Of 99 pregnancies, only 24.2% were multiple including 1% of triplets compared to 40.7% multiple pregnancies including 6.7% of triplets for the first policy. Forty-eight transfers of two average embryos with the new policy were compared to 264 transfers of three average embryos with the old policy. Multiple pregnancy rates per transfer were significantly reduced by a third from 23 to 8% (P < 0.05) without a reduction of the pregnancy rates (42 and 48%). This study demonstrated that elective transfer of two embryos reduced the number of multiple pregnancies without impairing the pregnancy rates even with the transfer of average embryos.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to compare pregnancy characteristics and perinatal outcome of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) pregnancies with pregnancies obtained after in-vitro fertilization (IVF). Retrospectively, 145 ICSI pregnancies were matched with 145 IVF pregnancies using the last menstruation data. The main outcome measures were preclinical and clinical abortions, ectopic pregnancies, multiple gestations, prenatal morbidity, prematurity, Caesarean section, birthweight, perinatal mortality and malformations for singletons, twins and triplets. Although patients were significantly younger (P < 0.001) in ICSI (31 years) than in IVF (33 years), their infertility duration (5 years) was similar. The mean number of transferred embryos (2.7 embryos per transfer) was similar in IVF and ICSI. The rates of preclinical (15%) and clinical abortions (11% in ICSI versus 15% in IVF) were not different. Four ectopic pregnancies were observed in the IVF group and none in the ICSI group. In ICSI, two minor malformations were detected and two therapeutic abortions were performed respectively for polymalformations and suspicion of cystic fibrosis. The rate of congenital malformation was 2.8% in ICSI and 2.2% in IVF. In this last group, one therapeutic abortion for malformation of neural tube was performed and two minor malformations were detected. The rate of aborted embryonic sacs before 16 weeks of gestation was not significantly lower in ICSI compared with IVF (13.7% versus 20%). The rate of multiple gestations was similar in both groups (31% in IVF and 35% in ICSI). The number of Caesarean sections was similar in IVF and in ICSI and was twice as frequent for twins versus singletons. The number of singletons born by Caesarean section was 21% after ICSI and 17% after IVF. Mean birthweights and gestational ages at birth for twins were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in ICSI than in IVF (2488 versus 2281 g and 36.5 versus 35.5 weeks). This difference was not observed for singletons. In conclusion, pregnancy characteristics and perinatal outcome after ICSI showed no increase in the number of pathologies in comparison with IVF.

RESUMO

This paper analyses the reasons that oocyte and sperm donation are experienced very differently by couples, despite their apparent similarity, and stresses the impact of the difficulties on donor recruitment in all oocyte donation programmes. The various types of donors (occasional, relational, in-vitro fertilization patient and professional) are described together with their motivations, resistance, advantages and disadvantages. The contradictory consequences with free or paid donation, the particular risks of oocyte donation (in comparison with sperm donation) both for the donor and for the recipient are highlighted. The problem of maintaining anonymity is then analysed in ethical terms but also in terms of technical efficacy. A strategy is described which, due to the decision of retaining anonymity, authorizes the sharing of oocytes between recipients. This has as a consequence, an increase in treatment efficacy by avoiding wastage of oocytes offered as a donation.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the different short-term complications after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. DESIGN: a retrospective study on 7 years in the fertility clinic of an university hospital. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Short-term medical complications were analysed after 1500 transvaginal ultrasonographically guided oocyte retrievals. RESULTS: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (1.8%), pelvic infections (0.4%), intraperitoneal bleeding (0.2%) and adnexal torsions (0.13%) were observed. One case of adnexal torsion occurred during pregnancy (0.18%). Two unusual case of bowel endometriosis were encountered (0.13%). CONCLUSIONS: Short-term medical complications after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer are rare (2.8%). This contrast with the high rate of multifetal pregnancies which increases maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality and must be considered as the major complication of in vitro fertilization treatment.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedure by analysing early pregnancy data from ICSI and in-vitro fertilization (IVF) patients. In all, 50 ICSI pregnancies were compared with 226 IVF pregnancies. Comparisons were made during the first 9 weeks after the theoretical last menstrual period (7 weeks after oocyte retrieval) with regard to epidemiological data, plasma hormonal concentrations and transvaginal ultrasonographical findings. Although patients were significantly (P < 0.001) younger in ICSI (31 years) than in IVF pregnancies (33 years), their duration of infertility was similar. Miscarriage and multiple gestation rates were not significantly different in ICSI pregnancies (respectively 24 and 24%) from those found after IVF (32 and 29%). The probability of developmental arrest of the intrauterine sac (miscarriages and vanishing twins) was similar in both ICSI (16%) and IVF (25%) cases. The mean plasma hormonal concentrations starting from day 11 after oocyte retrieval were similar in both groups. Every ICSI and IVF pregnancy showed an embryo with cardiac activity at 7 weeks. Early pregnancy data did not show any abnormal findings for pregnancies achieved using ICSI compared to those achieved by IVF.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To determine the efficacy and innocuousness of long-acting versus short-acting GnRH analogues (GnRH-a) in long protocol for in IVF-ET. DESIGN: Prospective randomized study. SETTING: The IVF unit at an academic hospital. PATIENTS: One hundred couples admitted for their first IVF-ET attempt. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Serum concentrations of LH, E2, and P during the all cycles and duration of pituitary desensitization were assessed, as well as fertilization rate, embryo quality, and implantation and pregnancy rates. RESULTS: Significantly more days (10.8 +/- 1.8 versus 9.2 +/- 1.7 days) of stimulation and more ampules of hMG (47 +/- 22 versus 33 +/- 16) were necessary to obtain similar numbers of embryos of quality with the long-acting GnRH-a. Implantation and delivery rates were significantly lower with the long-acting GnRH-a (32.8% versus 21.1%; 48.9% versus 29.1%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: As the long-acting GnRH-a might interfere with the luteal phase and embryo development, short-acting GnRH-a should be preferred for ovarian hyperstimulation in IVF-ET.

RESUMO

Before starting with the clinical application of ICS, aged unfertilized oocytes were gathered for training and were injected with a single sperm or without a spermatozoon as a control group for activation. Oocyte damage, initially as high as 40% was reduced to 15% after 60 oocytes. Normal fertilization (2PN) occurred in 18% of the injected oocytes. After this training period 1,488 metaphase II oocytes collected during 144 cycles were used for ICSI. Results were split up in 3 periods (n = 55, n = 24, n = 57) corresponding to the different improvements made in the technique. Results form ICSI in combination with MESA (n = 6) were analysed separately. Mean fertilization increased from 24% to 77%. Fertilization failures (18% of the cycles during the first period) vanished in the last period. Implantation rate improved from 7.4% to 11.4% and reached finally 26%. Pregnancy rate per oocyte retrieval was 16%, 25% and 54%. For the MESA group fertilization was 28%, implantation rate 17% and pregnancy rate 33% and only one fertilization failure was observed. A total of 50 pregnancies were obtained including 2 obtained after MESA and 2 with cryopreserved embryos. Four healthy children are born, 9 were early abortions, 37 pregnancies are still on-going. Preclinical practice on aged unfertilized oocytes seems useful before starting with clinical ICSI, as high initial oocyte damage could be reduced and subsequent clinical treatment successfully applied. Offering high fertilization and pregnancy rates in cases of infertility with severe male factor it is extremely worthwhile mastering this new technique.

RESUMO

Puerperal ovarian vein thrombophlebitis (POVT) is a rare postpartal complication. Its incidence is about 0.05%. POVT can follow a term pregnancy, a premature delivery, an abortion or an ectopic pregnancy. POVT usually presents as a syndrome consisting in lower abdominal pain and fever which does not respond to adequate antibiotics. We present a case report, in which the diagnosis was based upon computed tomography.
