Expression of placental leptin and leptin receptor transcripts in early pregnancy and at term
1 Dec 1998
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts for placental leptin and leptin receptor in early gestation and at term, to quantitate transcriptional changes relative to stage of gestation, to localize transcripts within specific placental cell types, and to determine if transcripts also are expressed in cultured cells. METHODS: Expression of leptin and leptin receptor was assessed...
