Description

Kit for diagnosing endometrium inflammatory infertility and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biological medicines, and particularly relates to a kit for diagnosing endometrium inflammatory infertility and application thereof.
Background
Infertility is a clinical common disease of women in gestational age, the female infertility rate is 9% -18% in the global scope, and the female infertility rate is continuously increased along with the influence of factors such as the delay of the wedding age of the female, the increase of pressure and the like. Infertility is caused by various reasons, mainly including endocrine disorders, lesions of the reproductive system, immune factors and micro-ecological states (such as leucorrhea pH, vaginal cleanliness, fungi, trichomonas and clue cells), etc. Among these factors, diagnosis and treatment of infertility caused by endocrine disorders and organic lesions are relatively easy, but the etiology and pathogenesis of immune infertility are relatively complex, and it has not been completely elucidated at present, and various immune imbalances can lead to the occurrence of infertility.
Endometritis is an important risk factor for infertility, and the main influence mechanism is that the endometritis patient has an influence on the form and compatibility of endometrium, and can directly influence embryo implantation, so that infertility is caused. Inflammatory cells have cytotoxin effect, can reduce sperm motility or cause sperm death, reduce sperm quantity in oviduct, influence fertility, and cause infertility. In addition, pathogens causing inflammation can stimulate the immune response of the organism and generate antibodies, so that the release of a large amount of inflammatory cells and cytokines is stimulated, and the implantation of pregnant eggs and the implantation of placenta and embryo development are not facilitated. But because endometritis is difficult to be found, the diagnosis and treatment effects of patients on infertility are delayed.
Specific antigen refers to a specific antigen recognized by lymphocyte antigen receptor, which can provoke the immune system of human body to generate immune response, thereby triggering a large amount of autoantibodies corresponding to the specific antigen to be released into serum. The research team uses HuProt TM human proteome chips to select 6 autoantibodies of specific antigens, namely ER, PR, CD3, CD16, CD38 and CD138 on the basis of a genomics database established by technologies of whole genome association analysis, whole genome sequencing, whole genome exon sequencing and the like in the early stage, and the existence of the autoantibodies of the 6 specific antigens can be detected before the diagnosis of the endometrium inflammatory infertility, and the autoantibodies have higher specificity and sensitivity to the endometrium inflammatory infertility patients. However, the use of 6 specific antigens, ER, PR, CD3, CD16, CD38, CD138, for detecting the expression of the corresponding autoantibodies in the endometrium of patients with endometrium inflammatory infertility has not been reported. Therefore, the research provides a kit for diagnosing the endometrium inflammatory infertility, which can promote the diagnosis and treatment level of the chronic endometrium inflammatory infertility in China and also provides thinking for future further research on the chronic endometrium inflammatory infertility.

The basic information of the related antigens ER protein, PR protein, CD3 protein, CD16 protein, CD38 protein and CD138 protein in the invention is as follows:
Estrogen receptors (Estrogen Receptor, abbreviated ER) are present in normal mammary epithelium, endometrium, myometrium, cervical tissue and ovaries. ER is widely found in endometrial tissue cells and complexes with estrogens promote cell growth and proliferation. The ER protein in NCBI has the protein sequence number: np_001001443.
Progestin receptors (Progesterone Receptor, abbreviated PR) are present in normal mammary epithelium, endometrium, myometrium, cervical tissue and ovaries. The progestogen, through binding to its PR, inhibits mitosis, promotes cell differentiation and maturation, has an antagonistic effect on estrogens, protects the endometrium, and plays an important role in female infertility hormone dysfunction. The protein sequence number of PR protein in NCBI is: np_001192285.
CD3 is a reliable marker of T cells, is used as a T cell antigen receptor and distributed on the surfaces of all mature T cells, plays an indispensable role in T cell immunity and is mainly used for diagnosing T cell lymphomas. The protein sequence number of CD3 protein in NCBI is: np_001135555.
CD16 is a biomarker associated with monocytes and natural killer (naturalkilling, NK) cells in the lymphatic system. NK cells are the most abundant immune cells in endometrium before embryo implantation and decidua of early pregnancy, secrete various cytokines and vascular growth factors, regulate remodeling of endometrium spiral artery and invasion of trophoblast cells, and play an important role in reducing endometrial receptivity. The protein sequence number of the CD16 protein in NCBI is: np_001121068.
CD38 is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 42KD, and is mainly expressed in plasma cells and partially activated T/B cells, and is used for diagnosis of plasma cell lymphoma. The protein sequence number of the CD38 protein in NCBI is: np_001091148.
CD138 is a transmembrane heparin sulfate protein expressed on the surface of pre-B cells and plasma cells, and is mainly used for diagnosis of plasma cell lymphoma. In recent years, CD138 is proposed as ligand glycan, is a good marker of plasma cells, can directly detect the plasma cells, can exclude the influence of morphological similar cells, and provides a reference basis for diagnosing chronic endometritis. CD138 can bind chemotactic factors, induce neutrophil to gather at an inflammation part, inhibit T cell migration, and regulate leukocyte-endothelial cell reaction of an organism, thereby participating in inflammatory reaction, and leading to migration and invasion of trophoblast. A variety of pathogenic bacteria can cause the host cell surface CD138 molecules to shed from the outer functional region, thereby enhancing self-toxic effects. CD138 molecules outside epithelial cell membranes fall off when endometrium is damaged, and are combined with bacteria or fibroblasts to participate in membrane tissue repair and inflammatory reaction in a body. The protein sequence number of CD138 protein in NCBI is: np_001006947.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the positive beneficial effects that:
(1) The invention discovers for the first time that the expression level of ER, PR, CD3, CD16, CD38 and CD138 autoantibodies in serum of patients with endometrium inflammatory infertility is obviously higher than that of normal people, and the difference has statistical significance, and the endometrium inflammatory infertility can be effectively detected by detecting the expression level of ER, PR, CD3, CD16, CD38 and CD138 autoantibodies in the serum of the human; proved by verification, when any one marker of ER, PR, CD3, CD16, CD38 and CD138 autoantibodies is singly adopted for diagnosing the chronic endometrium inflammatory infertility, the AUC value of the ROC curve is above 0.59, wherein the AUC value of the ROC curve of the ER autoantibody for diagnosing the chronic endometrium inflammatory infertility reaches 0.747; moreover, when a plurality of markers are used in combination, the AUC value of the ROC curve is closer to 1 than that of a single index, so that the discrimination effect is good and the diagnosis effect is good. Therefore, the marker for diagnosis of endometrium inflammatory infertility of the present invention can be used for auxiliary diagnosis of endometrium inflammatory infertility.
(2) According to the invention, when six markers, namely ER autoantibody, PR autoantibody, CD3 autoantibody, CD16 autoantibody, CD38 autoantibody and CD138 autoantibody, are used as a combination for diagnosis and detection of endometrium inflammatory infertility, the AUC of the ROC curve is 0.9355 (95% CI: 0.9041-0.9670), the detection sensitivity is as high as 93.6% (namely, the ratio of the six markers to be correctly diagnosed as endometrium inflammatory infertility when the six markers are used for diagnosis in chronic endometrium inflammatory infertility patients is 93.6%), the specificity is as high as 80.7% (namely, the ratio of the six markers to be determined as healthy persons when the six markers are used for diagnosis in healthy control is 80.7%), so that the marker has higher sensitivity and specificity, greatly improves the detection rate of endometrium inflammatory infertility, is beneficial to screening and early detection of endometrium inflammatory infertility groups, and brings great good fortune to chronic endometrium inflammatory infertility patients and families.
(3) The kit detects the expression level of ER, PR, CD3, CD16, CD38 and CD138 autoantibodies in human serum by an indirect ELISA method, can accurately distinguish patients with endometrium inflammatory infertility from normal control diagnosis, and provides a new reference basis for a clinician to diagnose the endometrium inflammatory infertility.

5. The prepared kit is adopted to detect the autoantibody expression level of 6 specific antigens in a serum sample:
The prepared kit is adopted to detect the expression level of the specific antigen autoantibody in the serum sample 6 of the infertility group and the normal control group. The same serum sample is respectively used for detecting the expression levels of ER autoantibodies, PR autoantibodies, CD3 autoantibodies, CD16 autoantibodies, CD38 autoantibodies and CD138 autoantibodies in the serum sample by adopting the ELISA method by adopting the 6 specific antigen coated ELISA plates prepared above.
Taking the example of detecting the expression level of ER autoantibodies, the specific operation steps are as follows:
(1) Incubation of serum samples:
And diluting the serum sample to be detected by using a serum sample diluent according to the volume ratio of 1:100. Adding the diluted serum sample into the reaction wells of the 1 st-11 th row of the ER protein coated 96-well ELISA plate prepared in the step (1), wherein the sample adding amount is 50 μl/well; adding positive serum diluted according to a volume ratio of 1:100 into a1 st-3 rd reaction well of a 12 th row of a 96-well ELISA plate coated with ER protein, wherein the sample adding amount is 50 μl/well, and adding negative serum diluted according to a volume ratio of 1:100 into a 4 th-6 th row of reaction space, wherein the sample adding amount is 50 μl/well; adding serum-free antibody diluent (the loading amount is 50 μl/hole) into the 7 th-8 th reaction hole of the 12 th row of the 96-well ELISA plate coated with ER protein as a blank control; the 96-well enzyme label was then incubated in a 37℃water bath for 1h, after which the reaction wells were discarded, washed 5 times with wash solution (300. Mu.l/well) and dried by pipetting.
(2) Secondary antibody incubation:
diluting the horseradish peroxidase-labeled RecA protein with a secondary antibody diluent according to the proportion of 1:40000, adding the diluted horseradish peroxidase-labeled RecA protein into a reaction hole of a 96-hole ELISA plate, placing the reaction hole in a water bath at 37 ℃ for incubation for 1h, discarding the liquid in the reaction hole, washing the reaction hole for 5 times with a washing solution (the sample adding amount is 300 μl/hole), and beating to dryness.
(3) Color development and termination reaction:
Uniformly mixing the color development liquid A and the color development liquid B according to the equal volume of 1:1, then rapidly adding the mixed color development liquid into the reaction holes of the 96-hole ELISA plate, wherein the sample adding amount is 50 μl/hole, performing light-proof color development reaction at room temperature for 5-15min, and then adding 25 μl of stop solution into each reaction hole to stop the color development reaction; and respectively reading the absorbance OD450 and the absorbance OD620 at the wavelengths of 450nm and 620nm by using a microplate reader, wherein the absorbance OD620 at the wavelength of 620nm is used as a background value, and the difference value between the absorbance OD450 and the absorbance OD620 is used as a final result of the detected absorbance value.
The specific procedure for detecting the expression levels of PR autoantibodies, CD3 autoantibodies, CD16 autoantibodies, CD38 autoantibodies, CD138 autoantibodies in serum samples is essentially the same as that described above for detecting ER autoantibodies, except that: in the step 1), the ELISA plates used in the detection are PR, CD3, CD16, CD38 and CD138 protein coated ELISA plates respectively.
6. And (3) data processing:
The absorbance values (OD values) of the serum samples of the infertility group and the normal control group are subjected to Kolmogorov-Smirnova test, and as a result, the expression levels of the 6 specific related antigen autoantibodies in the serum sample of the study object are not consistent with the normal distribution (P < 0.05), so that the 25 th percentile (P25), the median (P50) and the 75 th percentile (P75) are used for describing the expression level distribution of the 6 specific antigen autoantibodies; a nonparametric test (Mann-WhitneyU) was then used to compare whether there was a difference in the expression level of autoantibodies in the infertility group and the normal control group.
7. Judging the detection result of the kit:
And taking the average number of OD values measured by the negative control holes plus two standard deviations (mean+2SD) as cut-off values, wherein the judgment that the OD value reading in the reaction holes is larger than or equal to the cut-off value is positive, and the judgment that the OD value reading in the reaction holes is smaller than the cut-off value is negative.
8. Experimental results:
(1) Expression level of autoantibodies to 6 specific antigens in infertility group, normal control group:
The statistics of the expression level of the autoantibodies of the 6 specific antigens in the infertility group and the normal control group are shown in fig. 2 and 3.
As can be seen from FIG. 2, the average expression level of the 6 specific antigen autoantibodies was high in the infertility group, and the average OD value was floating around 0.35. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the average expression level of the 6 specific related antigen autoantibodies in the normal control group is lower, and the average OD value is less than 0.25. As can be seen from fig. 2 and 3, the average level of the 6 specific antigen autoantibodies in the serum of the patients with infertility is significantly higher than that of the normal control group, which indicates that the 6 specific related antigen autoantibodies can be used for diagnosing endometrium inflammatory infertility.
(2) Positive rate of autoantibodies to 6 specific antigens in infertility group, normal control group:
And respectively counting the positive rates of the specific antigen autoantibodies in the infertility group and the normal control group (the positive rate is obtained by dividing the number of positive objects detected in each group by the total number of objects detected in the group) by taking the detection result of the kit as a standard, and drawing a bar graph of the positive rates of the 4 tumor-associated antigen autoantibodies in the infertility group and the normal control group by using Excel software (shown in figure 4). The SPSS22.0 software is used for statistical test, the two independent sample chi-square test method is adopted to compare the antibody positive rate of the infertility group and the normal control group, the test level alpha=0.05, and when P is less than 0.05, the result has statistical significance.
As can be seen from FIG. 4, the positive rate of 6 specific antigen autoantibodies in the serum of the patients in the infertility group is in the range of 30% -38.5%, while the positive rate in the control group is not more than 11%. Moreover, the positive rate of the 6 specific antigen autoantibodies in the infertility group is higher than that of the control group through statistical test. The 6 specific antigen autoantibodies can be used as detection indexes of endometrium inflammatory infertility and used for early diagnosis of endometrium inflammatory infertility.
(3) Value assessment of 6 specific antigen autoantibodies alone for diagnosis of endometrial inflammatory infertility:
further, according to the levels of the 6 specific antigen autoantibodies in the infertility group and the normal control group detected by the kit, the individual diagnosis of the autoantibodies of the 6 anti-tumor related antigens is respectively drawn by GRAPHPAD PRISM 8.0.0 to distinguish ROC curves of the patients with endometrium inflammatory infertility and normal persons (as shown in figure 5), the value of the diagnosis of the autoantibodies of the 6 specific antigens to distinguish the patients with endometrium inflammatory infertility and normal persons is verified, and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity are calculated (as shown in table 1).
As can be seen from fig. 5, the AUC of ER autoantibodies when used to diagnose infertility patients from normal individuals was 0.747; the AUC of PR autoantibody diagnosis is 0.652 when the PR autoantibody diagnosis is adopted to distinguish infertility patients from normal people; the AUC of CD3 autoantibodies when used to diagnose and distinguish infertility patients from normal humans was 0.639; the AUC of CD16 autoantibodies when used to diagnose and distinguish infertility patients from normal individuals was 0.617; the AUC of CD38 autoantibodies when used to diagnose and distinguish infertility patients from normal humans was 0.614; the AUC of CD138 autoantibody diagnosis when used to differentiate infertility patients from normal individuals was 0.594. From this, it is clear that the AUC of each of the 6 autoantibodies against the tumor-associated antigen alone for diagnosis and distinction of infertility patients is greater than 0.5, and therefore, ER autoantibodies, PR autoantibodies, CD3 autoantibodies, CD16 autoantibodies, CD38 autoantibodies, CD138 autoantibodies can be used for the auxiliary diagnosis of endometrial inflammatory infertility.
(4) Value assessment of 6 specific antigen autoantibody combinations for diagnosis of endometrial inflammatory infertility:
in order to improve the diagnosis sensitivity, the invention combines ER autoantibodies, PR autoantibodies, CD3 autoantibodies, CD16 autoantibodies, CD38 autoantibodies and CD138 autoantibodies in parallel, judges the serum of 109 infertility patients and 109 normal control serum which are included in the examples, and analyzes the value of different specific antigen combinations for diagnosing the endometrium inflammatory infertility.
The method for judging the diagnosis of the endometrium inflammatory infertility by using the combination of the antigen autoantibodies with different specificities comprises the following steps: when the parallel combination of two, three, four, five or six specific antigen autoantibodies is used for diagnosing and distinguishing the endometrium inflammatory infertility, the diagnosis result of any specific antigen autoantibody in the combination is positive, and the diagnosis result of the specific antigen autoantibody combination is positive. Based on the determination results, ROC curves were generated, and the sensitivity and specificity were counted, and the results are shown in fig. 6 and table 1.
Table 1 shows statistics of results of combinations of autoantibodies to antigens of different specificities for diagnosis of endometrium inflammatory infertility
As can be seen from fig. 6 and table 1, AUC and sensitivity of the combination of a plurality of specific antigen autoantibodies for diagnosis of endometrium inflammatory infertility are significantly improved as compared to the single specific antigen autoantibody; in addition, as the number of specific antigen autoantibodies in the combination increases, the sensitivity of diagnosis of endometrial inflammatory infertility also increases, and when 6 specific antigen autoantibodies are combined, the AUC of the ROC curve reaches the maximum of 0.936, the sensitivity of detection reaches 93.6%, and the diagnostic value is higher. Although the detection specificity gradually decreases with increasing number of specific antigen autoantibodies in the combination, the detection specificity can still reach 80.7% when 6 specific antigen autoantibodies are combined. Therefore, when the combination of a plurality of specific antigen autoantibodies is used for diagnosing endometrium inflammatory infertility, the diagnosis sensitivity can be greatly improved on the premise of ensuring the diagnosis specificity. In addition, as the number of specific antigen autoantibodies in the combination increases, the about log index is continuously increased and gradually tends to be 1, which indicates that the method for diagnosing the endometrium inflammatory infertility by using the combination of a plurality of specific antigen autoantibodies has better diagnosis value.
The experimental result shows that the ELISA kit has higher diagnostic value for the endometrium inflammatory infertility, and further proves that the ELISA kit is an ideal means for early diagnosis and screening of infertility.
