|
A: the proteins HCG, AFP and PRL showed a similar decreasing trend after the 20th week, while HPL and SP1 rose progressively throughout the 2nd trimester, thereafter remaining constant.
|
10 |
1280539
|
Chorionic gonadotropin HPL and SP1 in MS were higher than in AF, while AF values of AFP and PRL were higher than in MS, but the ratio MS/AF of all hormone values increased significantly from the 2nd to the 3rd trimester (p < 0.005-p < 0.000001).
|
11 |
1280539
|
In erythroblastosis and diabetes, AFP was very low, but placental hormones, PRL and ET were both high and low.
|

|
This study was undertaken to determine the significance of the changes in nonsuppressible insulin-like activity as measured by the fat pad assay and by the levels of immunoreactive somatomedin C, growth hormone, and human placental lactogen in sera of term normal pregnant women, mothers who delivered prematurely, and women with gestational diabetes at term as compared to normal nonpregnant subjects.
|
36 |
4050920
|
Our investigations showed that (1) nonsuppressible insulin-like activity is elevated during pregnancy, but its level was lower in mothers with gestational diabetes in spite of significantly higher serum human placental lactogen compared with normal pregnant mothers; (2) nonsuppressible insulin-like activity is significantly lower in premature infants than in term infants; (3) somatomedin C levels were significantly elevated in pregnant mothers in spite of suppression of growth hormone; (4) nonsuppressible insulin-like activity and somatomedin C levels in infants of mothers with gestational diabetes were not significantly elevated in spite of higher birth weight, indicating that nonsuppressible insulin-like activity and somatomedins are not the only factors responsible for the increase of birth weight of children of diabetic mothers; (5) there was marked discordance between the growth hormone level in the neonates and somatomedin C levels.

Both insulin and the related peptides, the insulin-like growth factors/somatomedins, may function as anabolic factors in the regulation of fetal body size.
|
44 |
6096045
|
Insulin-like growth factors I (IGFI) and II are present in the circulation of the newborn infant and animal fetus and correlate positively with birth size.
|
45 |
6096045
|
The fetal tissues are biologically responsive to IGFs in vitro and are rich in specific cell membrane receptors, those predominantly recognizing IGFI being structurally and functionally similar to the insulin receptor.
|
46 |
6096045
|
Fetal IGF production may be influenced by placental lactogen, especially IGFII which rapidly declines in the circulation following parturition in the rat and sheep.
|
47 |
6096045
|
Similarly the infant born with transient diabetes mellitus has low cord blood levels of insulin and IGFI.

Sp1, the pregnancy-specific beta 1-glycoprotein, was studied in normal and pathologic pregnancies.
|
54 |
6787188
|
Since the radioimmunological determination of SP1 is possible in the early stage of gestation (from week 8) it may serve as a useful tool for prediction at times when the determination of placental lactogen is not yet possible.
|
55 |

Placental hormones, including human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and human placental lactogen (hPL), are predicted to manipulate maternal physiology for fetal benefit.
|
64 |
8238332
|
Throughout gestation, maternal insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) increases progressively despite suppressed pituitary growth hormone (GH) secretion.
|
65 |
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.

Adipsin expression and growth in rats as influenced by insulin and somatotropin.
|
67 |
8372111
|
Insulin reduces adipsin expression in vitro and is negatively correlated with adipsin expression in vivo.
|
68 |
8372111
|
Because bovine somatotropin (bST) opposes many actions of insulin and can reduce body fat content, we tested the hypothesis that bST enhances adipsin expression.
|
69 |
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.
|

8477657
|
In the presence of 10 micrograms/liter insulin, 50 micrograms/liter insulin-like growth factor-1 did not alter the ability of GH to suppress lipid accumulation.

Pregnancy itself is diabetogenic caused by increased insulin resistance due to the production of hormones like estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, human chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS) and human placental lactogen (hPL).
|
73 |
9704223
|
Similar frequencies of HLA-DR2, DR3, and DR4 antigens in healthy pregnant women and women with GDM and low prevalences of markers for autoimmune destruction of the beta-cells in GDM pregnancy rule out the possibility that GDM is a disease of autoimmune origin.
|
74 |
9704223
|
Insulin receptor binding to target tissues is largely unaffected by normal and GDM pregnancy; the same is true for basal and insulin-stimulated insulin receptor-bound tyrosine kinase activity.
|
75 |
9704223
|
Hormones that circulate in high concentrations in pregnancy (e.g., progesterone, cortisol, prolactin, human placental lactogen, and estrogen) have all been shown, in animal models, to be able to influence beta-cell function and/or the peripheral tissue sensitivity to insulin, but whether they play similar roles in human pregnancy remains to be investigated.
|
76 |
9930929
|
Increased mitotic activity has been seen both in vivo and in vitro in islets exposed to placental lactogen (PL), prolactin (PRL) and growth hormone (GH).
|
77 |
9930929
|
Thus the mitotic signaling only requires the membrane proximal part of the receptor and activation of the tyrosine kinase JAK2 and the transcription factors STAT1 and 3.
|
78 |

|
In order to identify putative autocrine growth factors or targets for growth factors we have cloned a novel GH/PRL stimulated rat islet gene product, Pref-1 (preadipocyte factor-1).
|

|
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.
|
80 |
10619404
|
Specifically, normal term placentas express higher relative levels of hCS-L, lower relative hGH-V levels and a 70-fold lower hGH-V/CS-L mRNA ratio compared to early placentas.
|
81 |
10619404
|
Also, many term placentas from diabetic pregnancies express lower relative levels of hCS-L mRNA and a much higher hGH-V/CS-L mRNA ratio compared to normal term placenta, resembling more an early placenta pattern of expression.
|

10671817
|
Basal levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor-I, prolactin, glucagon, estradiol, progesterone, human placental lactogen and human chorionic gonadotropin were investigated in 15 nonobese women with GDM and 26 matched normal pregnant women (N).

|
In order to explore the role of murine placental lactogen (PL)-I (mPL-I) in islet mass regulation in vivo, we developed transgenic mice in which mPL-I is targeted to the beta cell using the rat insulin II promoter.
|
84 |
11723058
|
We have developed three transgenic models in which growth factors (hepatocyte growth factor [HGF], placental lactogen, or parathyroid hormone-related protein) have been targeted to the beta-cell using rat insulin promoter (RIP).
|
85 |
11723058
|
RIP-HGF islets, P < 0.01), have two- to threefold higher GLUT2 and glucokinase steady-state mRNA levels, take up and metabolize glucose more effectively, and most importantly, function at least twice as effectively after transplantation.

|
TNF-alpha is a predictor of insulin resistance in human pregnancy.
|
87 |
12086951
|
The purpose of this study was to test this hypothesis by correlating the longitudinal changes in insulin sensitivity during pregnancy with changes in placental hormones, cortisol, leptin, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha.
|
88 |
12086951
|
Body composition, plasma TNF-alpha, leptin, cortisol, and reproductive hormones (human chorionic gonadotropin, estradiol, progesterone, human placental lactogen, and prolactin) were measured in conjunction with the clamps.
|
89 |
12086951
|
TNF-alpha, leptin, cortisol, all reproductive hormones, and fat mass were increased in late pregnancy (P < 0.001).
|
90 |
12086951
|
During late pregnancy, TNF-alpha was inversely correlated with insulin sensitivity (r = -0.69, P < 0.006).
|
91 |
12086951
|
Furthermore, among all of the hormonal changes measured in this study, the change in TNF-alpha from pregravid to late pregnancy was the only significant predictor of the change in insulin sensitivity (r = -0.60, P < 0.02).
|
92 |
12086951
|
Multivariate stepwise regression analysis revealed that TNF-alpha was the most significant independent predictor of insulin sensitivity (r = -0.67, P < 0.0001), even after adjustment for fat mass by covariance (r = 0.46, P < 0.01).
|
93 |
12086951
|
These observations challenge the view that the classical reproductive hormones are the primary mediators of change in insulin sensitivity during gestation and provide the basis for including TNF-alpha in a new paradigm to explain insulin resistance in pregnancy.

|
Transgenic overexpression of either parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) or mouse placental lactogen type 1 (mPL1) in pancreatic beta-cells, using the rat insulin II promoter (RIP), results in islet hyperplasia either through prolonged beta-cell survival or through increased beta-cell proliferation and hypertrophy, respectively.

|
99 |
16380478
|
We hypothesized that combined transgenic overexpression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and placental lactogen in islets would lead to even greater increases in beta-cell mass and replication than either growth factor alone.
|
100 |
16380478
|
We therefore performed the first comprehensive G(1)/S cell cycle survey in islets, cataloguing the broad range of kinases, cyclins, and kinase inhibitors that control the G(1)/S transition in islets from normal, HGF, placental lactogen, and doubly transgenic mice.

102 |
16380478
|
Most of these proteins were unaltered by overexpression of HGF or placental lactogen, either alone or in combination.
|
103 |
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.

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.

We hypothesized that combined transgenic overexpression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and placental lactogen in islets would lead to even greater increases in beta-cell mass and replication than either growth factor alone.

We therefore performed the first comprehensive G(1)/S cell cycle survey in islets, cataloguing the broad range of kinases, cyclins, and kinase inhibitors that control the G(1)/S transition in islets from normal, HGF, placental lactogen, and doubly transgenic mice.

Many of the G(1)/S checkpoint regulators (E2Fs; pRb; p107; p130; cyclins D(1),(2),(3), A, and E; cdk-2; cdk-4; p15; p16; p18; p19; p21; p27; MDM2; p53; c-Myc; and Egr-1) are present in the murine islet.

We next attempted to drive beta-cell replication in p21-null mice by crossing them with rat insulin II promoter-murine PL-1 (islet-targeted placental lactogen transgenic) mice.

|
A G(1/S) proteome scan demonstrated that p21(cip1) loss was not associated with compensatory increases in other cell cycle inhibitors (pRb, p107, p130, p16, p19, and p27), although mild increases in p57 were apparent.
|
142 |
17130470
|
In summary, isolated p21(cip1) loss, as for pRb, p53, p18, and p27 and other inhibitors, results in normal beta-cell development and function, either because it is not essential or because its function is subserved or complimented by another protein.

|
We have previously shown that transgenic mice expressing mouse placental lactogen-1 (mPL1) in beta cells under the rat insulin II promoter (RIP) are resistant to the diabetogenic and cytotoxic effects of streptozotocin (STZ) in vivo.
|
146 |
17728251
|
The signaling pathway mediating this protective effect is the janus-activated-kinase-2/signal transducer and activator of transcription-5 (JAK2/STAT5) pathway.
|
147 |
17728251
|
This is demonstrated in INS-1 cells and primary mouse beta cells using three separate approaches, pharmacological inhibitors, JAK2-specific siRNAs and a dominant-negative STAT5 mutant.
|
148 |

We believe this is the first direct demonstration of lactogens mediating their protective effect through the JAK2/STAT5 pathway in the beta cell and through Bcl-XL in any cell type.

BMD, CSA, and SM vary in proportion to total body lean mass, supporting the view that bones adapt to prevalent muscle loads.
|
157 |

Because lean mass is a progressively smaller fraction of total mass in obesity, femur BMD, CSA, and SM decline relative to body weight in higher BMI categories.

The hormone adiponectin has been shown to be important in maintaining insulin sensitivity throughout the body, whereas potential effects on the placenta have not been assessed.
|
165 |
19520781
|
Adiponectin's role in regulating peripheral insulin responsiveness suggests it may be a factor in maintaining this balance during gestation as well.
|
166 |
19520781
|
Examination of human cytotrophoblast cells revealed that mRNA for both adiponectin receptors, adipoR1 and adipoR2, are abundantly expressed at term.
|
167 |
19520781
|
Treatment of cytotrophoblasts with adiponectin resulted in a significant drop, as assessed by quantitative RT-PCR, in expression for a number of genes involved in the endocrine function of the placenta, including the chorionic gonadotropin subunits, placental lactogen, and some steroidogenic enzymes.
|
168 |
19520781
|
Immunofluorescent staining for connexin 43 and desmoplakin in primary trophoblasts revealed that adiponectin does not inhibit syncytialization of trophoblast cells in culture.

Increasing insulin resistance in the mother maintains nutrient flow to the growing fetus, whereas prolactin and placental lactogen counterbalance this resistance and prevent maternal hyperglycemia by driving expansion of the maternal population of insulin-producing beta cells.
|

|
Inhibition of serotonin synthesis by dietary tryptophan restriction or Tph inhibition blocked beta cell expansion and induced glucose intolerance in pregnant mice without affecting insulin sensitivity.

Expression of the G alpha(q)-linked serotonin receptor 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor-2b (Htr2b) in maternal islets increased during pregnancy and normalized just before parturition, whereas expression of the G alpha(i)-linked receptor Htr1d increased at the end of pregnancy and postpartum.

Lactogens (prolactin, placental lactogen and growth hormone) improve β-cell survival via STAT5 activation but the molecular targets are incompletely characterized.
|
173 |

|
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of human growth hormone (hGH) on mRNAs of fatty acid transport and binding proteins expressed in pancreatic β-cells, and to examine this in relation to β-cell survival after exposure to fatty acids. hGH decreased mRNA levels of FAT/CD36, whereas mRNAs of GPR40, FASN, FABP2, FATP1 and FATP4 were unchanged.
|
174 |
21679697
|
Over-expression of constitutively active STAT5 was able to mimic hGH's suppression of FAT/CD36 expression, whereas dominant negative STAT5 was unable to block the effect of hGH indicating that STAT5 did not bind directly to the FAT/CD36 promoter.
|
175 |
21679697
|
The hGH-mediated suppression of FAT/CD36 mRNA was associated with a decrease in palmitate uptake and fatty acid-induced basal hyper-secretion of insulin resulting in improved glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

Among factors with mitogenic activity on pancreatic β-cells, human placental lactogen (hPL) showed stronger activity when compared to the other lactogen hormones: growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL).
|
178 |
21765243
|
Indeed, the antiapoptotic role of hPL-A was mediated by PI3K, p38 and it was independent by PKA, Erk1/2.
|
179 |
21765243
|
Moreover, hPL-A induced PDX-1 intracellular expression, improving beta cell activity and ameliorating insulin secretion in response to high glucose stimulation.
