“…Moreover, Swierzko et al recently reported that the high serum MBL-conferring A/A genotypes in neonates are associated with prematurity. Consistent with that, low (deficiency) MBL levels were underrepresented among premature babies (Swierzko et al 2009). It is very probable that although MBL is protective when a pathogen is to be eliminated by an inflammatory complement-dependent response, persistent activation may in some cases lead to an excessive response (Ameglio et al 2007;Swierzko et al 2009).…”

It is very probable that although MBL is protective when a pathogen is to be eliminated by an inflammatory complement-dependent response, persistent activation may in some cases lead to an excessive response (Ameglio et al 2007;Swierzko et al 2009). Since, as mentioned, intrauterine infections are one of the main reasons for premature deliveries, it is possible that, however rarely, higher MBL levels might be disadvantageous.…”

“…However, in our study, the polymorphisms of SFTPA1 and SFTPA2 did not show any association with SPTB. In the case of the MBL2 gene, our study finding of an absence of association was unexpected, because the association of distinct MBL2 polymorphisms and haplotypes with preterm birth has been previously demonstrated (26)(27)(28)(29). However, the earlier studies were performed in different populations and there are inconsistencies in phenotype definitions of preterm birth.…”

“…Ωστόσο, υπάρχουν μελέτες οι οποίες αναδεικνύουν πιθανή συσχέτιση μεταξύ MBL ανεπάρκειας και σήψης στα νεογνά, που αξίζει να αναφερθούν και θα αποτελέσουν σημείο αναφοράς και σύγκρισης με την παρούσα μελέτη [30,31,192,193,194,195,196].…”

“…Θεωρήθηκαν MBL ανεπαρκή τα νεογνά που παρουσίαζαν συγκεντρώσεις χαμηλότερες των 700 ng/ml. Με βάση τον γονότυπο που έφεραν και λαμβάνοντας υπόψη τoν πολυμορφισμό στη θέση -221, Στο ίδιο πλαίσιο μεταγενέστερη μελέτη προσπάθησε να διερευνήσει τη σημασία της MBL ανεπάρκειας στην ανάπτυξη περιγεννητικών λοιμώξεων [195]. Η MBL ανεπάρκεια εκφράστηκε γενετικά με τους γονότυπους XA/Ο και O/Ο, ενώ σε πρωτεϊνικό επίπεδο θεωρήθηκαν ανεπαρκή τα νεογνά που παρουσίαζαν τιμές χαμηλότερες από 150 ng/ml.…”
