Comparison of fetal lung maturation in preterm singleton and twin pregnancies.

TL;DR: Analysis of the data reveals that fetal lung maturation is biochemically comparable between twin and singleton pregnancies and among twins for a given gestational age in this clinical setting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amniotic fluid 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid in preterm labor.

TL;DR: 5-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) is an arachidonate lipoxygenase product capable of stimulating human uterine contractility in a dose-dependent manner in vitro and changes in the concentration of this metabolite in amniotic fluid were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction and Postranslational Expression of G‐CSF and RANTES in a First Trimester Trophoblast Cell Line by Lipopolysaccharide

TL;DR: In this paper, the LPS induction of G-CSF and RANTES in a first trimester trophoblast cell line supported the contention that trophoblasts participate in cytokine-based immune signaling in response to infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interleukin-19 in fetal systemic inflammation
