Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Circulating relaxin levels have repeatedly been associated with preterm birth (PTB). Our aim was to investigate if mothers carrying promoter single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in one of the three relaxin genes (RLN1, RLN2, RLN3) are predisposed for PTB. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Maternal DNA from 80 preterm cases (40 very preterm births (24-34 weeks) and 40 moderate preterm (34-36 weeks) and 40...
