[The role of maternal imunity and woman´s microbiome in the pathogenesis of preterm labor].
Ceská Gynekologie 0 December
OBJECTIVE: To summarize available data concerning the role of maternal imunity and woman´s microbiome in the pathogenesis of preterm labor and their use in clinical practice.
SETTING: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology od the First Faculty of Medicine, Charles University in Prague, and General Teaching Hospital.
DESIGN: Review article.
METHODS: Compilation od published data from scientific literature.
CONCLUSION: Preterm labor complicates approximately 10% of all pregnancies and represents a serious medical, social and economic problem. In the past, a lot of causes of preterm labor were discussed; infection, uteroplacental ischemia, decidual hemorrhage, uterine overdistension, cervical disease and maternal-fetal tolerance disorder were considered the most common. However, chronic inflammation seems to be the common pathogenic process underlying preterm labor, irrespective of the original stimulus. Currently, impaired maternal-fetal immunological tolerance represents most discussed topic. Growing scientific evidence suggests that the immune regulation of the maternal-fetal interface is the result of the coordinated interaction among maternal microbiota, trophoblast and maternal cellular components. From this view we understand preterm labor as a result of disruption of this process.
