Abstract:
AIMS:To investigate localization and concentration of adhesion molecules in the human lower uterine segment during preterm parturition. METHODS:In a prospective study biopsy specimens from the lower uterine segment of 43 patients undergoing cesarean section at 24 + 0 to 36 + 4 weeks' gestation were immunostained for intercellular adhesion molecule-1, endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1, and the concentrations measured by enzyme immunoassay. The results were analyzed in relation to the degree of cervical dilatation (< 2 cm, 2- < 4 cm, > or = 4 cm) and duration of labor (< or = 6 h, > 6-12 h; > 12 h). RESULTS:Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 were strongly expressed by capillary endothelium, endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 to only a minor degree. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 concentration was greater at > or = 4 cm dilatation than at 2- < 4 cm and after > 12 h labor than after < or = 6 h. Endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 concentration was greater after > 12 h than after < or = 6 h. CONCLUSIONS:Premature labor is associated with up-regulation of adhesion molecules in the lower uterine segment.
