Abstract

Placental tissue from five women undergoing elective caesarean did not present differences in fatty acids or mRNA expression of FATP-1, FATP-4 and H-FABP in different placental locations. mRNA expression of FATP-1 and FATP-4 was significantly higher than H-FABP. The expression of L-FABP was too low in placenta for accurate quantification.
