Abstract excerpt

Histologic inflammation of placenta has been associated with increased risk for bronchopulmonary dysplasia and periventricular leukomalacia among preterm infants. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) plays a central role in the regulation of inflammation. Some alleles of TNF (LT-alpha+250, TNF-alpha-308, and TNF-alpha-238) have been associated with susceptibility and/or severity of many diseases characterized...
