Synthesis of Leptin in Human Placenta

1 Oct 1997

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Gender-based differences in serum leptin levels have been reported in umbilical cord blood, and leptin has been detectedin human amniotic fluid. In order to understand if leptin may be directly synthesized by human placentae an analysis made up of several steps was performed. First at all RT-PCR analysis from placenta-derived RNA was used to detect human leptin mRNA. The leptin-like...
