Heritability and circulating concentrations of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A and stanniocalcin-2 in elderly monozygotic and dizygotic twins

Heritability and circulating concentrations of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A and stanniocalcin-2 in elderly monozygotic and dizygotic twins

IntroductionPregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) is an IGF-activating enzyme suggested to influence aging-related diseases. However, knowledge on serum PAPP-A concentration and regulation in elderly subjects is limited. Therefore, we measured serum PAPP-A in elderly same-sex monozygotic (M...
