The miRNA-29b Is Downregulated in Placenta During Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and May Alter Placenta Development by Regulating Trophoblast Migration and Invasion Through a HIF3A-Dependent Mechanism

Abstract excerpt

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a disease that changes the function of microvascular of placenta. MicroRNA (miRNA) expression in placenta may contribute to the pathogenesis of GDM. Here, we evaluate the role and function of miR-29b in the development of GDM. This study discovered that miR-29b expression was lower in placentas derived from patients with GDM than that in control placentas. MiR-29b...
