“…HBDs expressed by fetal membranes and the placenta (34,36) may create a key barrier to the establishment of different infections (34). However, HBD expression levels at placenta and other reproductive tissues have not been studied as potential modifiers of the risk of HIV infection.…”

“…In addition, the ∆32 mutation has not been found to confer protection against HIV-1 vertical transmission (22,26,27 response, have strong antiviral activity as a primary function or as a "collateral" effect. At least 5 factors have been identified in the maternal-fetus interface: stromal α-chemokine derived factor-1 (SDF-1) (28), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) (29), alloantigenstimulated factor (ASF) (30), RNases associated with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) (31)(32)(33) and, most recently, the β and α-defensins (34)(35)(36). Defensins are small cysteine-rich cationic peptides that exhibit antimicrobial activity against a broad spectrum of microorganisms (37).…”

“…При этом у беременных частота АВ составляет от 3 до 10 % [15,49]. Выраженные проявления АВ во время беременности, как правило, отсутствуют вследствие определенных механизмов антими-кробной защиты на фоне высокой концентра-ции половых гормонов [50]. В работе J. Zodzika et al (2011) обследовано 139 беременных жен-щин, из которых только у 1 женщины наблюда-лись выраженные острые проявления АВ, в то время как умеренно выраженное (подострое) течение заболевания наблюдалось у 10 % жен-щин, что не имело существенных различий с частотой заболеваемости БВ (9,4 %) у обсле-дуемой группы [51].…”

“…In common with other barrier sites the placenta and reproductive tissues express a wide range of antibacterial [151][152][153] and antiviral factors 154 . It therefore seems likely that the high levels of local 1,25(OH) 2 D production within the placenta will impact on these antimicrobials.…”
