Understanding Host-Pathogen Interactions in Acute Chorioamnionitis Through the Use of Animal Models [PDF]
Inflammation of the chorion and/or amnion during pregnancy is called chorioamnionitis. Acute chorioamnionitis is implicated in approximately 40% of preterm births and has wide-ranging implications for the mother, fetus, and newborn.

Ureaplasma-Urealyticum Chorioamnionitis
Controversy reigns over the role of Ureaplasma urealyticum in determining pregnancy outcome. U. urealyticum infection of the chorioamnion is strongly associated with chorioamnionitis (1-3), premature birth (2-4), and perinatal morbidity (4-6). We present

Immunobiology of Acute Chorioamnionitis [PDF]
Acute chorioamnionitis is characterized by neutrophilic infiltration and inflammation at the maternal fetal interface. It is a relatively common complication of pregnancy and can have devastating consequences including preterm labor, maternal infections,

Animal Models of Chorioamnionitis: Considerations for Translational Medicine
Preterm birth is defined as any birth occurring before 37 completed weeks of gestation by the World Health Organization. Preterm birth is responsible for perinatal mortality and long-term neurological morbidity.
