Introduction: Poor placental angiogenesis is associated with several pregnancy complications including fetal growth restriction (FGR), which causes low birth weight (LBW) babies to have a high risk of growth disorders and metabolic disorders in adulthood. Recent research using syncytin knock-out mice showed significant disruption in the growth of placental vascularization. Syncytin-1 which encoded by ERVW-1 gene, is proposed to have a role in placental angiogenesis, but its relationship with other proangiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the placenta of LBW babies has not yet been determined.
