SLC2A1 and Hypoglycemia: In sheep, FGR induced by placental embolization [45] results in fetal hypoxia and hypoglycemia and is associated with reductions in SLC2A1 mRNA and placental glucose uptake, but the intra-amniotic infusion of IGF1 into these fetuses increased the placental expression of SLC2A1 mRNA [45].
