Effect of Qigongwan on Quality of Oocytes and Embryonic Development Potential in Patients with PCOS Infertility with Phlegm-dampness Syndrome
To observe the regulation of Qigongwan on the expression of proliferation and apoptosis-related factors programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) in patients with polycystie ovarian syndrome (PCOS) infertility with phlegm-dampness syndrome, and to explore the effect of Qigongwan on the quality of oocytes and embryonic development potential.
Method
2
Sixty-six patients with PCOS with phlegm-dampness syndrome who underwent
in vitro
fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) were randomly selected and divided into an observation group (Qigongwan + western medicine) and a control group (western medicine), with 33 patients in each group. Antagonist regimen was used to promote ovulation in the two groups. The observation group was given Qigongwan one cycle before IVF based on the treatment of conventional western medicine, while the control group was not given Chinese medicine. The improvement of phlegm and dampness syndrome, the dosage and the number of days of using gonadotropins (Gn), the levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E
2
), and progesterone (P) on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG) injection, the 2PN fertilization rate, and the high-quality embryo rate of patients in the two groups were compared. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) and Western blot technology were used to detect the expression of PCNA and PDCD4 in GCs.
Result
2
As compared with groups before treatment, the score of phlegm-dampness syndrome in both groups was significantly lower (
P
<
0.01). The score of phlegm and dampness syndrome in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (
P
<
0.01). As compared with the control group, the levels of LH, E
2
, and P in the observation group was higher, but only the difference in the level of E
2
was statistically significant (
P
<
0.01). The 2PN fertilization rate [82.25% (556/676)
vs
69.92% (365/522),
χ
2
=25.172,
P
<
0.01] and high-quality embryo rate [44.19% (190/430)
vs
34.23% (102/298),
χ
2
=7.266,
P
<
0.01] in the observation group were significantly higher than that of the control group (
P
<
0.01). As compared with the control group, the mRNA and protein expression of PDCD4 in ovarian GCs was down-regulated in the observation group and that of PCNA was up-regulated (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
By down-regulating the expression of PDCD4 and up-regulating the expression of PCNA, Qigongwan may interfere with follicle development, adjust hormone levels, improve the symptomatic manifestations of patients with PCOS with phlegm-dampness syndrome, inhibit the apoptosis of GCs, and promote growth, thus improving the quality of oocytes and embryonic development potential.
