Antioxidant Enzyme Expression, Lipid Peroxidation, and Protein Oxidation in Human Myometrium With Parturition

Oxygen levels fluctuate considerably during human labor leading to hypoxia and reoxygenation of the uteroplacental unit and in some cases may compromise the progression of labor. Our aim was to assess the possible contribution of oxidative stress to the onset of labor. Thiobarbituric acid was used a...
