IL-1beta decreases SNAT1 and SNAT2 mRNA levels in trophoblasts, which is associated with a decrease in system A-mediated transport activity at the functional level. These findings may have important consequences under both physiologic conditions and pathologic conditions during pregnancy that are associated with elevated levels of IL-1beta.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
