Published in 2018 at "Birth defects research"

DOI: 10.1002/bdr2.1356

Abstract: BACKGROUND Folate plays a fundamental role for fetal development, participating in cell division, embryogenesis, and fetal growth. The fetus depends on maternal supply of folate across the placenta. The objective of this study was to… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Molecular Medicine"

DOI: 10.1007/s00109-018-1688-8

Abstract: Folate is an essential micronutrient for biological function. The liver, a primary organ for folate metabolism and storage, plays an important role in folate homeostasis. Proton-coupled folate transporter (PCFT) and reduced folate carrier (RFC) are… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Clinical Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2018.10.075

Abstract: INTRODUCTION Folate is essential for production of DNA, neurotransmitters and myelin and regulation of genetic activity. A specific transporter protein is required to transport folate from blood to CSF. Various inherited brain-specific folate transport defects… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "British Journal of Cancer"

DOI: 10.1038/s41416-020-0912-9

Abstract: Background Expression of proton-coupled folate transporter (PCFT) is associated with survival of mesothelioma patients treated with pemetrexed, and is reduced by hypoxia, prompting studies to elucidate their correlation. Methods Modulation of glycolytic gene expression was… read more here.
