The presence of cation‐dependent proteases for insulin‐like growth factor binding proteins does not alter the size distribution of insulin‐like growth factors in pregnancy

36 individuals including normal pregnant women (first trimester n=4, second trimester n=4, third trimester n=10), pregnant women with Type I diabetes in the third trimester (n=8), and normal adult volunteers (n=10).
