Summary: Genome wide expression profiling was used to identify signifnificantly changed genes in fetal membranes after GBS treatment. Genome-wide expression profiles in GBS-inoculated human extraplacental membranes in vitro were used to identify transcriptomic pathways altered by GBS . Using bioinformatics analysis of these expression profiles we aimed to test our hypothesis that GBS activates pathways related to inflammation and premature birth in human extraplacental membranes.
