Molecular bases of the excretion of fetal bile acids and pigments through the fetal liver-placenta-maternal liver pathway

Molecular bases of the excretion of fetal bile acids and pigments through the fetal liver-placenta-maternal liver pathway

Since the excretion of potentially toxic cholephilic organic anions (COAs) produced by the fetus, such as bile acids and biliary pigments, cannot be performed by the fetal liver alone, the placenta and the maternal liver must play a key role collaborating in this function. COAs are transported acros...
