Abstract:
:This study attempts quantification of prostaglandins (PGs) in amniotic fluid antepartum at 24, 26-33, 34-36 weeks of gestation and in labor in 6 normal patients, 6 diabetic patients, 3 patients taking methadone, and 1 patient taking heroin. Results of measurements of PGs showed that in the different weeks of gestation, the contents of PGs were essentially unchanged. PG values increased considerably at the time of labor, with no differences in the content of PGs in labor of normal, diabetic, and drug-abuse patients. The dominant fraction was PGF2alpha either during pregnancy or during labor, and the smallest fraction was PGE2 during gestation and PGE1 during labor. Significant differences of PGF2alpha concentrations were found in the serum of women at various stages of gestation. The high PG content in the amniotic fluid in labor indicates that PGs are needed for initiation of labor, and their origin is probably of fetal and decidual origin.
