Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin of gram-negative bacteria, causes preterm birth in animals and has been implicated as a factor triggering preterm labor and systemic complications in humans. Little is known regarding LPS in the cord blood (CB) of term and preterm infants and its association with maternal and fetal characteristics. CB was obtained from term (n=15) and preterm infants (n=76) after delivery. Plasma levels of LPS, C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and soluble CD14 (sCD14) were measured using commercially available kits (Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) assay and ELISA). Four linear regression models were created in order to identify independent variables that predict plasma LPS levels. CB LPS (24.48 vs. 1 pg/ml), CRP (87.9 vs. 47 ng/ml) and sCD14 (0.32 vs.0.35 µg/ml) levels were significantly higher in the preterm than the term infants. CB LPS levels correlate with gestational age, birth weight, CRP levels, sCD14 levels and the presence of both clinical and histological chorioamnionitis. Our data suggest that LPS is associated with preterm labor and inflammation (CRP elevation and chorioamnionitis). These findings may be relevant to understand the role of LPS in prematurity and its possible role in preterm morbidities.
