The relationship between bacterial load in amniotic fluid and the intensity of intraamniotic inflammatory response in women with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes

Provider: Ministerstvo zdravotnictví
Programme: Rezortní program výzkumu a vývoje - MZ III (2010 - 2015)
Implementation period: 01.04.12 - 31.12.15
Workplace:
Description:
The sample of amniotic fluid will be retrieval by transabdominal amniocentesis. The bacterial load of genital mycoplasmas/Streptococcus agalactiae with different quantification approach along with intensity of intraamniotic inflammatory response to bacteria by a panel of cytokines, chemokines and alarmins will be determined. The critical values of microbial burden responsible for exhibition of intensive intraamniotic infection and inflammation will be proposed. These values will be described for three different periods of pregnancy. Clinical observations will be verified with using of amnio-chorion explant model. The efficacy of threshold cycle value of real time PCR will be validated by absolute quantification approach.
