Abstract

rotoxicity. RESULTS: Pretreatment with hASC but not the post-treatment, significantly decreased the rate of preterm birth (p 0.01) by 21%. Pretreatment was associated with increase in IL-10 in MS (p 0.05) and IL-4 in AF (p 0.05); decrease in IL1 cytokine expression in fetal and neonatal brains, and fetal neurotoxicity (p 0.05). CONCLUSION: Maternally administered adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells appear to modulate maternal and fetal response to intrauterine inflammation in a murine model. While further research is needed, this study is the first to demonstrate that autologous hASC harvested from women with history of preterm birth may serve as a cell therapy “vaccine” in their future pregnancy.
