Placental Remote Control of Fetal Metabolism: Trophoblast mTOR Signaling Regulates Liver IGFBP-1 Phosphorylation and IGF-1 Bioavailability
The mechanisms mediating the restricted growth in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) remain to be fully established. Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling functions as a placental nutrient sensor, indirectly influencing fetal growth by regulating placental function. Increased secretio...
