Developmental Origins of Health and Disease: Integrating Environmental Influences.

abstract：:Recent studies have indicated that growth factors such as insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) increase the growth rate of cultured preimplantation embryos. We therefore hypothesized that the fallopian tube may produce IGFs which in turn participate in the regulation of preimplantation embryo development in vivo. In the...
