The abortion mouse models were established by mating female CBA/J mice with DBA/2 mice. Via the CBA/J×DBA/2 abortion mouse model, six groups were established, group A: normal pregnancy model; group B: abortion mouse model with no treatment; group C: abortion mouse model injected with DC culture medium(DCCM); group D: abortion mouse model injected with DC; group E: abortion mouse model injected with FTY720; group F: abortion model mouse injected with FTY720-DC. The differences were compared in the embryo resorption rates of the CBA/J ×DBA/2 abortion mouse model treated with FTY720-DC or different controls observed on gestation day 12 to 14, and then the microenvironment in murine pregnancy was investigated.Results The embryo resorption rate was statistically significantly decreased in group D and group E when they compared with group B and group C(P〈0.05, respectively).Furthermore, the embryo resorption rate in group F showed a statistically significant decrease when compared with the other groups except group A(P〈0.01). These resultssuggest that FTY720-DCs possess a notable advantage over DCs or FTY720 in reducing the embryo resorption rate of the abortion mouse model. The percentage of Th17(IL-17+CD4+T cells) in peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC) in the abortion mouse model was 4.35%±0.34% before treated with FTY720-DC, and was1.34%±0.28% after treated with FTY720-DC(P〈0.01). The percentage of Tregs(CD4~+CD25~+Foxp3~+T cells) in PBMC was significantly increased in group F(8.35%±1.80%) as compared with group B(2.68%±0.65%)(P〈0.01).Conclusion Adoptive transfer of FTY720-DC can statistically significantly reduce the embryo resorption rate in the CBA/J×DBA/2 abortion mouse model. The lower embryo resorption rate in the FTY720-DC treated abortion mouse model may be caused by the imbalance of Treg/Th17.展开更多

Herein, we synthesized two new thiazoloisoindigo(Tz II)-based polymers, namely, P(Tz II-d Th-d Th) and P(Tz II-d Th-d Tz), by copolymerizing thiophene-flanked Tz II with bithiophene and bithiazole, respectively. Owing to the more electron-deficient nature of bithiazole than bithiophene, P(Tz II-d Th-d Tz)possesses deeper LUMO/HOMO levels of-3.45/-5.47 e V than P(Tz II-d Th-d Th)(-3.34/-5.32 e V). The organic field-effect transistor(OFET) devices based on P(Tz II-d Th-d Th) exhibited p-type behaviors with an average hole mobility value as high as 1.43 cm^(2)·V^(-1)·s^(-1), while P(Tz II-d Th-d Tz)showed typical ambipolar characteristics with average hole and electron mobilities of 0.38 and 0.56 cm^(2)·V^(-1)·s^(-1). In addition, we compared the performances of both polymers with other Tz II-based polymers reported in our previous work, and showed that the charge carrier polarity can be manipulated by adjusting the number of the thiophene units between the acceptor unit. As the increase of the number of thiophene rings,charge carrier polarity shifts from electron-dominated ambipolar transport to hole-dominated ambipolar transport and then to unipolar hole transport in OFETs, which provides an effective molecular design strategy for further optimization of polymer OFET performance.展开更多

Methods: A total of 2063 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria were selected as the subjects from February 2016 to April 2017 in Jiading District Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Shanghai and Pudong New Area Maternal and Child Health Hospital. According to the birth weight of the neonates, the neonates were divided into the macrosomia group (neonatal weight > 4000 g, n=125) and the normal infant group (2500 g < neonatal weight < 4000 g, n=1938).The general data of age, number of pregnant women, BMI before pregnancy, gestational diabetes mellitus, glucose tolerance, weight gain during pregnancy, birth weight and gestational week were compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of macrosomia. Results: ①There were significant differences in BMI, glucose tolerance, fasting blood sugar, weight gain in the second trimester, weight gain in the third trimester, birth weight and gestational week between the two groups (P<0.05). ②Single factor analysis showed that pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational week at first diagnosis, fasting blood glucose tolerance, weight gain in the second trimester, weight gain in the third trimester, gestational week and birth weight were the influencing factors of macrosomia (P<0.05). ③Multi-factor analysis showed that gestational weeks, gestational diabetes, fasting glucose tolerance and weight growth in the second trimester were the main factors affecting the production of macrosomia, among which gestational diabetes was the protective factor, while gestational weeks, fasting glucose tolerance and weight growth in the second trimester were the risk factors. Conclusion: The high risk factors for macrosomia are gestational weeks, glucose tolerance, fasting blood sugar and weight gain in the second trimester of pregnancy.We should strengthen regular obstetric examination, health care during pregnancy, reasonable diet and proper exercise, and strictly control the weight gain during the second trimester of pregnancy. At the same time, we should monitor blood sugar in time so as to reduce the incidence of macrosomia.展开更多
