Fetal skin as a pro-inflammatory organ: Evidence from a primate model of chorioamnionitis. [PDF]
BackgroundIntrauterine infection is a primary cause of preterm birth and fetal injury. The pro-inflammatory role of the fetal skin in the setting of intrauterine infection remains poorly characterized. Whether or not inflammation of the fetal skin occurs
