Preferential uptake of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids by isolated human placental membranes

Fatty acid uptake by the placenta is thought to be a carrier-mediated process, however the mechanism by which long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) are preferentially accumulated from the maternal circulation to the fetal tissues is still unclear. To examine the role of the placenta in thi...
