From: Growth factor concentrations and their placental mRNA expression are modulated in gestational diabetes mellitus: possible interactions with macrosomia

Figure 3

(a) Serum GH concentrations, and (b) expression of placental mRNA of GH and GHR in gestational diabetic mothers and their babies. Serum GH concentrations and mRNA expression by RT-PCR were assessed as described in the section of the methods. Values are means ± SD. n = 60 control mothers and babies; n = 60 gestational diabetic mothers and macrosomic babies.
