The Roles of Placental Growth Hormone and Placental Lactogen in the Regulation of Human Fetal Growth and Development

1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

The human growth hormone (hGH)/human placental lactogen (hPL) gene family, which consists of two GH and three PL genes, is important in the regulation of maternal and fetal metabolism and the growth and development of the fetus. During pregnancy, pituitary GH (hGH-N) expression in the mother is suppressed; and hGH-V, a GH variant expressed by the placenta, becomes the predominant GH in the mother. hPL, which is...
