Immune profiling of cord blood after prolonged rupture of membranes
2018-10-16
Abstract excerpt
We hypothesised that foetal immune responses to an infectious challenge may be detected by genome-wide transcriptional profiling of cord blood. In order to test this hypothesis, we sought to identify transcriptomic changes in post-natal cord blood samples following prolonged pre-labour rupture of membranes (PROM) as a surrogate for increased risk of infection. By comparison to controls we found increased levels of...
