SLC38A4 Amino Acid Transporter Expression Is Significantly Lower in Early Preterm Intrauterine Growth Restriction Complicated Placentas
Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), predominantly caused by placental insufficiency, affects partitioning of nutrients to the fetus. The system A sodium-coupled transporters (SNAT or SLC38), of types A1, A2, and A4, control non-essential amino acid uptake and supply. Here, we aimed to investigat...
