Raised Trappin2/elafin Protein in Cervico-Vaginal Fluid Is a Potential Predictor of Cervical Shortening and Spontaneous Preterm Birth

Early spontaneous preterm birth is associated with inflammation/infection and shortening of the cervix. We hypothesised that cervico-vaginal production of trappin2/elafin (peptidase inhibitor 3) and cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (cathelicidin), key components of the innate immune system, are al...
