Gestational age‐dependent gene expression profiling of ATP ‐binding cassette transporters in the healthy human placenta

Abstract excerpt

Abstract TheATP‐binding cassette (ABC) transporters control placental transfer of several nutrients, steroids, immunological factors, chemicals, and drugs at the maternal‐fetal interface. We and others have demonstrated a gestational age‐dependent expression pattern of twoABCtransporters, P‐glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein throughout pregnancy. However, no reports have comprehensively elucidated...
