Preterm birth (PTB) remains the leading cause of infant morbidity and mortality. Despite 50 years of research, therapeutic options are limited and many lack clear efficacy. Tocolytic agents are drugs that briefly delay PTB, typically to all…
Aim: The molecular etiology of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is complex and not well understood. We compared the expression/ activity of extracellular matrix (ECM)-processing (procollagen I N-proteinase / a disintegrin and metalloproteinase w…

Preterm birth (PTB) is the single most important cause of perinatal and infant mortality worldwide. Maternal infection can result in PTB. We investigated the ability of a Broad Spectrum Chemokine Inhibitor (BSCI) to prevent infection-induce…
