Aryl hydrocarbon receptor and aryl hydrocarbon nuclear translocator expression in human and rat placentas and transcription activity in human trophoblast cultures
2011
Abstract
In the paper, we describe expression and ontogeny of AHR/Ahr and ARNT/Arnt and systematically characterize induction of major AHR target genes in human placental trophoblast forming the placental maternal-fetal morphological and metabolic barrier.
