The effects of oxygen concentration on in vitro output of prostaglandin E2 and interleukin-6 from human fetal membranes. حسب Al-Asmakh, Maha

"…The main sources are the fetal membranes, including the amnion, chorion and decidua, and it is well established that stimuli [bacteria, bacterial endotoxins, interleukin (IL)-1beta, corticotrophin releasing hormone and platelet activating factor], as well as negative regulators (progesterone and IL-10), control the net output of PGs and cytokines in vitro. In this study, we have investigated the effect of oxygen tension on fetal membrane biology, as a reconsideration of the literature suggests that fetal membranes are normally exposed to approximately 3% O(2) (approximately 20 mmHg) in vivo, rather than the 20% O(2) (150 mmHg) used for in vitro culture. …"
