DREAM Is Involved in the Genesis of Inflammation-Induced Prolabour Mediators in Human Myometrial and Amnion Cells

Figure 1

DREAM expression in human myometrium and fetal membranes. (a) Human myometrium was obtained from nonlabouring and labouring women at term Caesarean section ( patients per group). (b) Fetal membranes were obtained from women not in labour at term Caesarean section and women after term spontaneous labour onset and delivery ( patients per group). (c) Fetal membranes were obtained from women not in labour at preterm Caesarean section and women after preterm spontaneous labour onset and delivery ( patients per group). (d) Amnion was obtained from women at preterm Caesarean section with or without histological chorioamnionitis ( patients per group). DREAM mRNA expression was analysed by qRT-PCR. All data are displayed as mean ± SEM. versus preterm no labour (Student’s -test); versus preterm no chorioamnionitis (Student’s -test).
