Insulin and insulin-like growth factors in human development: implications for the perinatal period.

Seminars in perinatology - 1 Dec 2001

Fant M E, Weisoly D

Abstract excerpt

The physiologic and cellular mechanisms regulating fetal growth cannot be adequately described by regulatory mechanisms important postnatally. This review summarizes recent advances in clinical medicine, cell and molecular biology, and physiology showing the central and essential roles of insulin and the insulin-like growth factor family of peptides in regulating fetal growth. Moreover, the importance of...
