MicroRNA-148b-3p and MicroRNA-25-3p Are Overexpressed in Fetuses with Late-Onset Fetal Growth Restriction
2019
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> It was the aim of this study to describe a microRNA (miRNA) profile characteristic of late-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR) and to investigate the pathways involved in their biochemical action. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> In this prospective study, 25 fetuses (16 normal and 9 with FGR [estimated fetal weight &#x3c;10th centile plus cerebroplacental ratio &#x3c;0.6765 multiples of the median]) were evaluated with Doppler ultrasound after 36 weeks. Afterwards, for every fetus, plasma from umbilical vein blood was collected at birth, miRNA was extracted, and full miRNA sequencing was performed. Subsequently, compa…
