Maternal lipids during pregnancy and placental growth factors are associated with excess foetal growth. However, how these factors interact to increase the risk of delivering large-for-gestational-age (LGA) neonates remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the relationship between maternal plasma triglyceride (TG) and free fatty acids (FAs) during pregnancy, cord blood insulin-like growth factors (IGF) and LGA. In a cell model, we studied the effect of different FAs on placental IGF-1 secretion. This cohort study included preg
