The IGF axis in baboon pregnancy: placental and systemic responses to feeding 70% global ad libitum diet
C Li, M Levitz, GB Hubbard, SL Jenkins, V Han… - Placenta, 2007 - Elsevier
Information on the influence of poor maternal nutrition on the regulation of responses to
pregnancy, placental and fetal growth and development is critical to a better understanding
of pregnancy physiology and pathophysiology. We determined normal changes and effects
of controlled and monitored moderate nutrient restriction (NR)(global nutrient intake reduced
to 70% of food consumed by mothers feeding ad libitum from 0.16 to 0.5 of gestation) in the
baboon, on important hematological, biochemical, and hormonal indices of fetal growth and …
