Imprinting and Promoter Usage of Insulin-Like Growth Factor II in Twin Discordant Placenta
Case reports from infant twins suggest that abnormal genomic imprinting may be one of the important causes of twin discordance, but it is unknown whether abnormal genomic imprinting occurs in the placenta. Therefore, we sought to determine the relationship between the imprinting of insulin-like grow...
