An in vivo study of ovine placental transport of essential amino acids.
Under normal physiological conditions, essential amino acids (EA) are transported from mother to fetus at different rates. The mechanisms underlying these differences include the expression of several amino acid transport systems in the placenta and the regulation of EA concentrations in maternal and fetal plasma. To study the relation of EA transplacental flux to maternal plasma concentration,...
متن کاملPlacental amino acid transport.
Normal fetal growth and development depend on a continuous supply of amino acids from the mother to the fetus. The placenta is responsible for the transfer of amino acids between the two circulations. The human placenta is hemomonochorial, meaning that the maternal and fetal circulations are separated by a single layer of polarized epithelium called the syncytiotrophoblast, which is in direct c...
متن کاملRenalTubularTransportof AminoAcids
Cushny in 1917 first remarked on the extensive amino acid reabsorption which occurs in the nephron. Although many workers since then have studied the nature and localization of the reabsorptive mechanism, progress has been slow because of the technical difficulties of micropuncture work. The bulk of filtered amino nitrogen is reabsorbed in the proximal tubule although the possibility of there b...
متن کاملPlacental mesenchymal stromal cells rescue ambulation in ovine myelomeningocele.
UNLABELLED Myelomeningocele (MMC)-commonly known as spina bifida-is a congenital birth defect that causes lifelong paralysis, incontinence, musculoskeletal deformities, and severe cognitive disabilities. The recent landmark Management of Myelomeningocele Study (MOMS) demonstrated for the first time in humans that in utero surgical repair of the MMC defect improves lower limb motor function, sug...
متن کاملPlacental uptake and transport of ACP, a neutral nonmetabolizable amino acid, in an ovine model of fetal growth restriction.
Reductions in fetal plasma concentrations of certain amino acids and reduced amino acid transport in vesicle studies suggest impaired placental amino acid transport in human fetal growth restriction (FGR). In the present study, we tested the hypothesis of an impairment in amino acid transport in the ovine model of hyperthermia-induced FGR by determining transplacental and placental retention an...
