The influence of increased blood placental lactogen (PL) levels on tissues of the developing fetus. Elevated PL concentrations throughout pregnancy are correlated with an increased secretion of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin-like growth factor-2 (IGF-2), which directly corresponds to an increased fetal weight [95].
