Research Abstract |
Leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) was found to exist in the decidua tissue by Western blot. There was no difference of the concentration of LIF between the aborted and artificial aborted decidua and also no difference of the concentration of LIF derived from cervical fluid at 4-5 weeks gestation between subsequent live birth and miscarriage groups. However, the concentration in chemical pregnancy and miscarriage with normal embryonic karyotype tended to be higher than that with abnormal embryonic karyotype. SYCP3 mutation was found in one of 101 patients and one of 82 fertile women and may not be associated with recurrent miscarriage caused by aneuploidy.
