Active clinical trials for "Abortion, Habitual"

Recurrent miscarriage affects women of childbearing age worldwide. Vascular endothelial dysfunction and immunological impairment are associated with both recurrent miscarriage and preeclampsia. To date, there is no effective or optimal therapeutic approach for these conditions. Hydroxychloroquine has endothelial protective action via ant diabetic, lipid lowering, antioxidant effects or direct endothelial protection. Hydroxychloroquine is an antimalarial and immunomodulatory agent. In pregnancy, hydroxychloroquine is prescribed for inflammatory conditions associated with adverse perinatal outcomes such as systemic lupus erythematosus, antiphospholipid syndrome and placental inflammatory lesions such as chronic histiocytic intervillositis, hydroxychloroquine has therapeutic potential to improve placental function in pregnancies associated with heightened inflammation.

The investigators have found that NLRP7 was upregulated and nuclear translocated in an in vitro model of decidualization. Knock-down or overexpression of NLRP7 reduced or enhanced the expression of decidual marker IGFBP-1. NLRP7 was also found to promote progesterone receptor (PR) activity. So, the investigators hypothesized that NLRP7 may regulate progesterone-induced decidualization of human endometrial stromal cells. Part I is to explore how NLRP7 is induced during the decidualization. According to the luciferase activities of NLRP7 promoter luciferase reporter systems, the region from -100 to +37 or from -1200 to -100 had positive or negative regulatory elements, respectively, in the in vitro decidualization. Part II is to explore how NLRP7 contributes the decidualization of endometrial stromal cells. By immunoprecipitations of NLRP7 or PR, the investigators found NLRP7 might involve in the transcriptional complex of PR in the in vitro decidualization. The NLRP7 interacting protein in the co-immunoprecipitations the investigatorsre analyzed by LC/MS-MS. Part III is to explore the effects of NLRP7 mutations on in vitro decidualization and macrophage differentiation. Comparing to RFP control, the investigators found wild-type NLRP7 enhanced but NLRP7 mutants reduced IGFBP-1 expression in the in vitro decidualization. In the M1 macrophage differentiation of THP-1, wild-type and mutant NLRP7 reduced IL-1β expression compared to the RFP control. Part IV is to explore a role of MPA in macrophage differentiation. MPA drives THP-1 cells a M2-like macrophage differentiation toward a phenotype of decidual macrophages, which promoted in vitro decidualization and trophoblastic invasion, but tolerated TLR ligands stimulations. In conclusion, NLRP7 contributes in vitro decidualization of endometrial stromal cells; NLRP7 mutation may impede in vitro decidualization; NLRP7 may suppress IL-1 expression in M1 macrophage differentiation; MPA drives M2 macrophage differentiation toward a phenotype of decidual macrophage.

The involvement of the immune system in the process of implantation and its modulation as a therapeutic line in these alterations, failure of implantation and repetition abortion are controversial and make it necessary to conduct clinical studies properly led and with a study population chosen by strict criteria in order to better understand the involvement of the different innate and adaptive immune mechanisms in the field of reproductive medicine and especially in clinically expressed failures recurrent implantation failure and recurrent abortions.

The aim of this study is determine vascular endothelial growth factor levels and angiogenesis/vascularity from hysteroscopic endometrial biopsies which taken from patients who has Recurrent Pregnancy Loss.The endometrial vascular endothelial growth factor levels will be measured by immunohistochemical staining methods due to office hysteroscopic endometrial biopsy after the menstruation at follicular phase of menstrual cycle.

Lower Apelin levels are associated with hypertensive disorders with pregnancy, yet no studies investigated its levels in recurrent pregnancy loss

The objective of this study is to study the association between insulin resistance and recurrent spontaneous miscarriage (RSM).

The present study is based on the hypothesis, that recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is associated with abnormal plasma mannose binding lectin (p-MBL) level. Secondarily, p-MBL level may affect the reproductive and the perinatal outcome in the first pregnancy following RPL. Thus, the present study aim to examine whether MBL should be a biomarker for women at risk for RPL and, secondarily, affect the reproductive and perinatal outcome, and thereby help clinicians identify fragile women who need intensified perinatal care.

The goal of this observational study is to test the alterations of gut microbiota composition among women of reproductive age with elevated homocysteine levels. The main question it aims to answer is: • the relationship between gut microbiota composition and recurrent abortion. Participants will provide their stool samples to be detected the composition of gut microbiota. . Researchers will compare women of reproductive age with normal homocysteine levels to see if any bacteria were involved in recurrent miscarriages.

To evaluate endoplasmic reticulum stress in women with recurrent pregnancy loss and those who had healthy births in the same age group. The level of the unfolded protein X box binding protein 1 (XBP-1) is measured. It is aimed to show the effect of endoplasmic reticulum stress on recurrent pregnancy loss.

The aim of this study is to compare the thyroid hormone values and anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) levels of women with a diagnosis of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and healthy pregnancies. The primary objective is to find out the relationship between recurrent pregnancy loss with thyroid hormone levels and anti-TPO positivity.
