The influence of placental metabolism on fatty acid transfer to the fetus

The influence of placental metabolism on fatty acid transfer to the fetus

The factors determining fatty acid transfer across the placenta are not fully understood. This study used a combined experimental and computational modeling approach to explore placental transfer of nonesterified fatty acids and identify the rate-determining processes. Isolated perfused human placen...
