L-Arginine transport across the basal plasma membrane of the syncytiotrophoblast of the human placenta from normal and p...
Cord blood levels of nitrate/nitrite, as a measure of nitric oxide (NO), are generally increased in preeclampsia. As L-arginine is the precursor for NO synthesis, we hypothesized that L-arginine transport across the syncytiotrophoblast basal plasma membrane (BM) of placentas from preeclamptic patients is also increased. Glutamine-sensitive and -ins...
