Leptin and Leptin Receptor Polymorphisms in Infants and Their Parents: Correlation with Preterm Birth

Leptin and Leptin Receptor Polymorphisms in Infants and Their Parents: Correlation with Preterm Birth

It has been proven that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in LEP and LEPR genes could predispose individuals to an increased risk of pregnancy adverse outcomes (PAOs) such as recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and pre-eclampsia. Preterm birth (PTB) is the leading cause of infant mortality. We decid...
