Cellular immune responses in amniotic fluid of women with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes

open access: yesJournal of Perinatal Medicine, 2020
Background Preterm birth is the leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (pPROM) occurs in 30% of preterm births; thus, this complication is a major contributor to maternal and neonatal morbidity. However,

Microbial burden and inflammasome activation in amniotic fluid of patients with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes

open access: yesJournal of Perinatal Medicine, 2020
Background Intra-amniotic inflammation, which is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, can occur in the presence or absence of detectable microorganisms, and involves activation of the inflammasome.

Fetal and amniotic fluid iron homeostasis in healthy and complicated murine, macaque, and human pregnancy.

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2020
Adequate iron supply during pregnancy is essential for fetal development. However, how fetal or amniotic fluid iron levels are regulated during healthy pregnancy, or pregnancies complicated by intraamniotic infection or inflammation (IAI) is unknown.

N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide in amniotic fluid of fetuses with known or suspected cardiac load. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
BACKGROUND:Myocardial dysfunction occurs in a variety of fetal disorders. Findings from adult cardiology, where n-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (nt-proBNP) is an established biomarker of left ventricular dysfunction have been extended to fetal ...

Зголемени вредности на IL-8 во ран втор триместар и нивната поврзаност со предвремено раѓање [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, TNF- alfa) are of crucial importance during pregnancy; they are produced by the placenta in the amniotic fluid and they are elevated in case of intrauterine inflammation.

Amniotic fluid embolism

open access: yesIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2009
The disastrous entry of amniotic fluid into the maternal circulation leads to dramatic sequelae of clinical events, characteristically referred to as Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE). The underlying mechanism for AFE is still poorly understood. Unfortunately, this situation has very grave maternal and fetal consequences.

Fetuin A concentration in the second trimester amniotic fluid of fetuses with Trisomy 21 appears to be lower: phenotypic considerations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objective: We investigated whether the concentration of the glycoprotein fetuin A is altered in the second trimester amniotic fluid of trisomy 21 pregnancies compared with euploid pregnancies. Methods.

The Effect of Intravenous and Oral Fluid Therapy on Women with Third Trimester Oligohydramnios of Pregnancy and the Fetus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, 2022
Background & Objective: Adequate amniotic fluid volume is one of the most important aspects of fetal health and Oligohydramnios refers to amniotic fluid volume that is less than expected for gestational age. The aim of this study was to compare the trend

Characterization of cells of amniotic fluids by immunological identification of intermediate-sized filaments: Presence of cells of different tissue origin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
Antibodies against intermediate-sized filaments, of the prekeratin or vimentin type, were used to investigate the presence of these filaments by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy in cultured and non-cultured amniotic fluid cells, in frozen sections ...
