Discordant Amino Acid Profiles in Monochorionic Twins with Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome

Discordant Amino Acid Profiles in Monochorionic Twins with Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome To test the hypothesis that discordant growth in monochorionic (MC) twins occurs at least in part due to disparity in placental amino acid transporter function, we measured plasma amino acid levels by HPLC in maternal and fetal blood samples collected at birth from gestational age matched twins with (n = 12) and without (n = 12) twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Pediatric Research Springer Journals

Abstract

To test the hypothesis that discordant growth in monochorionic (MC) twins occurs at least in part due to disparity in placental amino acid transporter function, we measured plasma amino acid levels by HPLC in maternal and fetal blood samples collected at birth from gestational age matched twins with (n = 12) and without (n = 12) twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS).
