1 21986512 Human placental lactogen (hPL) and prolactin increase maternal food intake by induction of central leptin resistance and promote maternal beta-cell expansion and insulin production to defend against the development of gestational diabetes mellitus.
2 4700328 Those patients requiring the largest insulin increment for the control of their diabetes in the pregnancy have placental lactogen levels in the higher range.
3 6135831 Serum human placental lactogen (hPL) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) were assayed and fetal crown-rump length (CRL) was determined by sonar in three groups of pregnant women--35 with uncomplicated pregnancies, 13 with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and 21 who represented a general pregnancy population.
4 6378262 Levels of human placental lactogen (HPL) were significantly elevated in B-noRx patients compared to PC and A and were lowered to levels comparable to normal in insulin-treated B patients.
5 8372111 In two experiments using 210 rats, bST and a similar hormone, bovine placental lactogen (bPL), both caused a small (14 to 27%) but statistically significant reduction in circulating adipsin protein.
6 8238332 We have previously shown that in normal pregnancy, a specific placental GH variant, rather than human placental lactogen (hPL), substitutes for pituitary GH in the regulation of maternal IGF-I.
7 10619404 The human growth hormone/chorionic somatomammotropin (hGH/CS) family consists of five genes, one of which (GH-N) is expressed efficiently in pituitary while the other four (CS-A, B, L, and hGH-V) are expressed in placenta and represent ultimate placental differentiation markers.
8 16380478 In contrast, p21(cip) was uniquely, dramatically, and reproducibly upregulated in placental lactogen and HGF islets. p21(cip) was also present in, and upregulated in, proliferating human islets, localizing specifically in beta-cells and translocating to the nucleus on mitogenic stimulation.
9 16380478 Homozygous p21(cip) loss releases islets from growth inhibition, markedly enhancing proliferation in response to HGF and placental lactogen.
