A pilot study of the association between maternal mid-pregnancy cholesterol and oxysterol concentrations and labor duration by Todd C. Rideout, Jaclyn Wallace, Xiaozhong Wen, Vanessa M. Barnabei, Kai Ling Kong, Richard W. Browne

“…Abstract Background Previous animal model studies have highlighted a role for cholesterol and its oxidized derivatives (oxysterols) in uterine contractile activity, however, a lipotoxic state associated with hypercholesterolemia may contribute to labor dystocia. Therefore, we investigated if maternal mid-pregnancy cholesterol and oxysterol concentrations were associated with labor duration in a human pregnancy cohort. …”
