Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Leptin (LEP) and leptin receptor (LEPR) are suggested to play a role in female reproduction and especially in pregnancy Both LEP and LEPR are synthesized by the pregnant female and embryo. The link between genetic polymorphisms of LEP and LEPR and preterm birth (PTB) is unknown. We studied maternal and neonatal LEP and LEPR genetic polymorphisms and the association with PTB. Blood for DNA analysis was...
