Table 1.
Anthropometric data for T-SGA, T-AGA, PT-SGA and PT-AGA newborns.
Figure 1.
Placental IGF-IR (A), IRS-1 (B), AKT (C), and mTOR (D) obtained from T-SGA (n = 26), T-AGA (n = 25), PT-SGA (n = 20) and PT-AGA (n = 22) pregnancies.
Representative electrophoretic gel for each protein is included in each graph. A p value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Figure 2.
Activation of Tyr-IGF-IR (A), Tyr-IRS-1(B), Thr-AKT (C), Ser-AKT (D) and Ser-mTOR (E) with IGF-I 10-8 mol/L in placental explants from T-SGA, T- AGA, PT-SGA and PT-AGA newborns.
Representative electrophoretic gel for each protein is included in each graph. The activation is expressed as area under the curve AUC. A p value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
