Determinants of placental leptin receptor gene expression and association with measures at birth.

Placenta - 1 Oct 2020

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The leptin signalling pathway is important in metabolic health during pregnancy. However, few studies have investigated the determinants and extent of leptin receptor gene (LEPR) expression in the placenta, nor the relationship with infant health in early life. Here, we investigate the genetic and maternal in utero determinants of placental LEPR expression, and whether this expression is linked to...
