A role for CXCL13 (BCA-1) in pregnancy and intra-amniotic infection/inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2008
CXCL13 is a potent chemokine, produced by mature and recently recruited macrophages to sites of inflammation, which has antimicrobial and anti-angiogenic properties. The purpose of this study was to: (1) determine whether CXCL13 is present in maternal serum, umbilical cord blood, and amniotic fluid (AF); (2) to determine if AF concentration changes ...
