Journal ArticleDOI

Role of matrix metalloproteinases in preterm labour

TL;DR: These signalling pathways indicate complex cooperative and bidirectional communications between amnion and choriodecidua in response to bacterial products, which include intermembranous cytokine traffic and signalling between tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fetal membranes exhibit selective leukocyte chemotaxic activity during human labor.

TL;DR: It is concluded that fetal membrane extracts obtained from women during labor exhibit selective chemotaxis for specific leukocyte subpopulations in vitro, which may contribute to a microenvironment composed of specificLeukocytes that promotes and amplifies biochemical changes in the fetal membranes during labor.
Journal ArticleDOI

New Insights into the Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Preeclampsia.

TL;DR: This review gathers published recent evidence about the implications of different MMPs in preeclampsia, and the potential use of these enzymes as emergent biomarkers and biological therapeutic targets, focusing on studies involving human subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secretions of interleukin-1beta and tumor necrosis factor alpha by whole fetal membranes depend on initial interactions of amnion or choriodecidua with lipopolysaccharides or group B streptococci.

TL;DR: Cooperative and bidirectional communications occur between amnion and choriodecidua in response to bacterial products, which include intermembranous cytokine traffic and signaling between tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Chemokines in Term and Premature Rupture of the Fetal Membranes: A Review

TL;DR: Data lend further support to the hypothesis that labor is an inflammatory response, wherein the infiltrated leukocytes in the choriodecidua interface could be contributing to the creation of a microenvironment leading to collagenolysis, which would promote the rupture of these tissues during labor.
