In IUGR placentas, DVL2 and DVL3 were expressed in >10% of trophoblast cells in 100% and 66.7% of samples, respectively, while in normal placentas, DVL2 and DVL3 were expressed in <10% of epithelial cells in 26.6% and 66.7% of samples, respectively (Table 2). The gene discussed is DVL3; the disease is fetal growth restriction.
