System A amino acid transporter activity in [Leu27]IGF-II- (n = 7, 51 fetuses) and vehicle-treated (n = 8, 60 fetuses) C57 mice. A: unidirectional 14CMeAIB transfer per gram placenta (kmf) (median ± interquartile range). Variation was significantly reduced in [Leu27]IGF-II-treated mice (P = 0.05). B: transfer (kmf) was inversely correlated with placental weight in both groups ([Leu27]IGF-II: P = 0.011, r2 = 0.198; vehicle: P = 0.0007, r2 = 0.186). C: transfer (kmf) is inversely correlated with fetal weight in [Leu27]IGF-II-treated animals only (P < 0.01, line of best fit presented).
