Study on the immunomodulatory mechanism of vitamin D in patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion

To investigate the mechanism of vitamin D level on the regulation of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets and serum Th1/Th2 cytokines in patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA). Eighty female patients with URSA attending Sichuan Jinxin Xinan Women's and Children's Hospital from January 2020 to May 2021 were selected as the study group, and 30 age-matched women with a history of healthy deliveries were chosen as the control group, and peripheral blood lymphocyte subpopulations and serum Th1/Th2 cytokines of people with different levels of vitamin D were detected in the study group by flow cytometry, respectively. The results of immune factors before and after supplementation were analyzed in 40 of these patients with low vitamin D levels. The results of lymphoid subpopulations and Th1/Th2 cytokines in 19 patients with normal pregnancy before and after vitamin D supplementation and after normal pregnancy were also analyzed comparatively. (1) Serum 25(OH)D in the study group was lower than in the control group; peripheral blood Th cells, B cells and NK cells in the study group were higher than in the control group; IL-2, TNF-α, IFN-γ and IL-6 in the study group were higher than in the control group, while IL-4 and IL-10 in the study group were lower than in the control group (P
