From: A pivotal role for the IL-1β and the inflammasome in preterm labor
IL-1β is over-expressed in myometrium during labor. (a) Pictures of myometrium from non-laboring and laboring patients during normal pregnancy (NP) or with chorioamnionitis (CA). Images of IL-1β or hemalum eosine staining are representative of 5 pictures taken from 3 different samples for each condition with an Axiozoom epifluorescence microscope (×400) in random chosen fields. (b) Fluorescence intensity of IL-1β labeling, mean ± SEM, n = 15, **P < 0.01 and ****P < 0.0001.
