Maternal–Fetal Nutrient Transport in Pregnancy Pathologies: The Role of the Placenta
Appropriate in utero growth is essential for offspring development and is a critical contributor to long-term health. Fetal growth is largely dictated by the availability of nutrients in maternal circulation and the ability of these nutrients to be transported into fetal circulation via the placenta. Substrate flux across placental gradients is dependent on the accessibility and activity of nut...
متن کاملNutrient transport across the placenta.
The placenta forms a selective barrier that functions to transport nutrients that are of critical use to the fetus. Nutrient transport across the placenta is regulated by many different active transporters found on the surface of both maternal and fetal facing membranes of the placenta. The presence of these transporters in the placenta has been implicated in the facilitation of nutrient diffus...
متن کاملAdaptations to in situ feeding: novel nutrient acquisition pathways in an ancient vertebrate.
During feeding, hagfish may immerse themselves in the body cavities of decaying carcasses, encountering high levels of dissolved organic nutrients. We hypothesized that this feeding environment might promote nutrient acquisition by the branchial and epidermal epithelia. The potential for Pacific hagfish, Eptatretus stoutii, to absorb amino acids from the environment across the skin and gill was...
متن کاملMechanisms Involved in the Placental Glucose Transfer
The mechanisms involved in both placental uptake and transfer of macronutrients are reviewed. Fatty acid, cholesterol and amino acid transport across the placenta involves a complex system to ensure nutrient delivery to the growing fetus. The placental glucose transfer is important for fetal macrosomia, but lipid disturbances in both maternal and placental compartments may contribute to neonata...
متن کاملRegulation of Nutrient Transport across the Placenta
Abnormal fetal growth, both growth restriction and overgrowth, is associated with perinatal complications and an increased risk of metabolic and cardiovascular disease later in life. Fetal growth is dependent on nutrient availability, which in turn is related to the capacity of the placenta to transport these nutrients. The activity of a range of nutrient transporters has been reported to be de...
