Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy: new insights into its pathogenesis.

ABSTRACT: AIM:To search a specific gene expression profile in women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and to evaluate the maternal and foetal outcome. METHODS:We consecutively enrolled 12 women with ICP and 12 healthy pregnant controls. The gene expression profile was assayed with the microarray technique including a panel of 5541 human genes. Microarray data were validated by real-time PCR technique. RESULTS:Caesarean delivery was performed in eight patients with ICP versus three controls (p = 0.05). ICP women delivered at earlier gestational age than control (p < 0.001). Foetal distress was recorded in two babies, but we failed to find any correlation between bile salt concentration and foetal distress. Twenty genes potentially correlated with ICP were found differentially expressed (p < 0.05). Among these, three belong to genetic classes involved in pathogenic mechanisms of ICP: (1) pathophysiology of pruritus (GABRA2, cases versus controls = 2, upregulated gene); (2) lipid metabolism and bile composition (HLPT, cases versus controls = 0.6, down-regulated gene) and (3) protein trafficking and cytoskeleton arrangement (KIFC3, cases versus controls = 0.5, down-regulated gene). CONCLUSIONS:Different gene expression may contribute to the complex pathogenesis of ICP. An upregulation of GABRA2 receptor may indicate that GABA may play a role in the pathogenesis of pruritus in this condition.

Linc02527 promoted autophagy in Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.

Project description:LncRNA plays a crucial role in human disease. However, the expression and function of LncRNA in ICP(Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy) is still not fully elucidated. In this study, we found Linc02527 was increased expression in placenta and serum of ICP patients. Ectopically expression of Linc02527 promoted autophagy and proliferate in HTR8 cells. Silencing Linc02527 suppressed the autophagy and proliferate in HTR8 cells. Mechanically study revealed that Linc02527 regulated the expression of ATG5 and ATG7 by sponging miR-3185. Linc02527 directly binding to YBX1 and activated P21. The growth of C57 mouse was retarded when autophagy was activated. In normal condition, inhibited autophagy using chloroquine did not affect the growth of C57 mouse. However, in the condition of autophagy was activated, inhibited autophagy using chloroquine can improve the growth of C57 mouse. Overall, the results of this study identified Linc02527 as a candidate biomarker in ICP and a potential target for ICP therapy. Chloroquine was a potential drug for ICP therapy.

The molecular genetics of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.

Project description:Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), also known as obstetric cholestasis, causes maternal pruritus and liver impairment, and may be complicated by spontaneous preterm labour, fetal asphyxial events and intrauterine death. Our understanding of the aetiology of this disease has expanded significantly in the last decade due to a better understanding of the role played by genetic factors. In particular, advances in our knowledge of bile homeostasis has led to the identification of genes that play a considerable role in susceptibility to ICP. In this review we consider these advances and discuss the disease in the context of bile synthesis and metabolism, focusing on the genetic discoveries that have shed light on the molecular aetiology and pathophysiology of the condition.

Placental gene-expression profiles of Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP)

Project description:DNA microarray was applied to characterize the whole-genome expression profiles of placentas during ICP development. Pregnant women were categorized evenly into three groups: healthy group; mild ICP, with serum bile-acid concentration ranging from 10M-bM-^@M-^S40 uM; and severe ICP, with bile-acid concentration >40 uM.

Role of ABCC2 common variants in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.

Project description:The pathogenesis of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), a disorder that adversely affects maternal wellbeing and fetal outcome, is unclear. However, multiple factors probably interact along with a genetic predisposition. We would like to add some comments on a paper recently published concerning the role of ABCB11 and ABCC2 polymorphisms in both ICP and contraceptive-induced cholestasis, especially in the light of our recently published findings about a positive association between ICP and ABCC2 common variants.

miR-148a-mediated estrogen-induced cholestasis in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy: Role of PXR/MRP3.

Project description:Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is an idiopathic liver disease while the biochemical characteristic is the elevated level of total bile acid (TBA). The present study investigated whether miR-148a mediates the induced effect of estrogen on the development of ICP and the proper mechanism: PXR/MRP3 signal pathway. mRNA expression was detected by qPCR, protein expression was detected by western blotting, the concentration of estrogen and TBA were detected by reagent kit respectively. In the cinical research, it was found that miR-148a expression was positive related with the concentration of TBA in the serum of ICP patients. In in vitro research, estradiol (500 nmol/L, 12 h) significantly upregulated miR-148a expression and LV-148a-siRNA inhibited the function of estradiol (500 nmol/L, 48 h) on TBA secretion. In addition, gene silence of miR-148a upregulated PXR expression which was inhibited by estradiol in LO2 cells. Pretreatment of rifampin (10 ?mol/L), the agonist of PXR alleviated the TBA secretion induced by estradiol (500 nmol/L, 48 h). miR-148a-siRNA and PXR had a synergistic action on TBA secretion of LO2. Both of miR-148a-siRNA and rifampin (10 ?mol/L) inhibited the upregulated effect of estradiol on MRP3 expression. This research has demonstrated that miR-148a may be involved in the induction of estrogen on ICP via PXR signal pathway, and MRP3 may be involved.

Placental Expression of Bile Acid Transporters in Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy.

Project description:Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a pregnancy-related condition characterized by increased maternal circulating bile acids (BAs) having adverse fetal effects. We investigated whether the human placenta expresses specific regulation patterns to prevent fetal exposition to harmful amounts of BAs during ICP. Using real-time quantitative PCR, we screened placentae from healthy pregnancies (n = 12) and corresponding trophoblast cells (n = 3) for the expression of 21 solute carriers and ATP-binding cassette transporter proteins, all acknowledged as BA- and/or cholestasis-related genes. The placental gene expression pattern was compared between healthy women and ICP patients (n = 12 each). Placental SLCO3A1 (OATP3A1) gene expression was significantly altered in ICP compared with controls. The other 20 genes, including SLC10A2 (ASBT) and EPHX1 (EPOX, mEH) reported for the first time in trophoblasts, were comparably abundant in healthy and ICP placentae. ABCG5 was undetectable in all placentae. Placental SLC10A2 (ASBT), SLCO4A1 (OATP4A1), and ABCC2 mRNA levels were positively correlated with BA concentrations in ICP. Placental SLC10A2 (ASBT) mRNA was also correlated with maternal body mass index. We conclude that at the transcriptional level only a limited response of BA transport systems is found under ICP conditions. However, the extent of the transcriptional response may also depend on the severity of the ICP condition and the magnitude by which the maternal BA levels are increased.
