Abstract
Background: Chorioamnionitis (CAM) is an important risk factor for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants.
Objectives: To evaluate the effects of CAM on the development of BPD using interleukin 6 (IL-6), Krebs von den Lungen 6 (KL-6), and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) in the amniotic fluid as markers for inflammation, lung injury, and fibrosis/remodeling, respectively.
Methods: Amniotic fluid concentrations of IL-6, KL-6, and TGF-β1 were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay.
Results: Of the 36 preterm infants, 18 were exposed to histologically confirmed CAM. Of these, 12 were later diagnosed as having BPD. The IL-6, KL-6, and TGF-β1 levels in the amniotic fluid significantly increased with increasing histologic severity of CAM. Moreover, these markers were higher in the BPD group with histologic CAM than those without.
Conclusions: Our study suggests that CAM is likely to induce inflammatory, injury, and remodeling processes in the fetal lung.
背景:绒毛膜羊膜炎(CAM)是早产儿发生支气管肺发育不良(BPD)的重要危险因素。目的:利用羊水中白细胞介素6 (IL-6)、肺Krebs von den Lungen 6 (KL-6)和转化生长因子β1 (TGF-β1)分别作为炎症、肺损伤和纤维化/重构的标志物,评价CAM对BPD发展的影响。方法:采用酶联免疫吸附法或电化学发光免疫分析法测定羊水中IL-6、KL-6、TGF-β1的浓度。结果:36例早产儿中,18例暴露于组织学证实的CAM。其中12人后来被诊断为BPD。羊水中IL-6、KL-6、TGF-β1水平随CAM组织学严重程度的增加而显著升高。此外,这些指标在有组织学CAM的BPD组高于没有CAM的BPD组。结论:我们的研究表明,CAM可能会诱发胎儿肺的炎症、损伤和重塑过程。
