Nutrient sulfate is important for fetal development. The fetus has a limited capacity to generate sulfate and relies on maternal sulfate supplied via the placenta. The gestational age when fetal sulfate generation begins is unknown but would require cysteine dioxygenase (CDO1) which mediates a major step of sulfate production from cysteine. We investigated the ontogeny of Cdo1 mRNA expression in mouse...
Sulfate is an important nutrient for fetal growth and development. The fetus has no mechanism for producing its own sulfate and is therefore totally reliant on sulfate from the maternal circulation via placental sulfate transport. To build a model of directional sulfate transport in the placenta, we investigated the relative abundance of the 10 known sulfate transporter mRNAs in human placenta from...
The human solute linked carrier (SLC) 13A4 gene is primarily expressed in the placenta where it is proposed to mediate the transport of nutrient sulfate from mother to fetus. The molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of SLC13A4 expression remain unknown. To investigate the regulation of SLC13A4 gene expression, we analysed the transcriptional activity of the human SLC13A4 5′-flanking region...
