Placental P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein: Influence of polymorphisms on fetal drug exposure and physiology

Hutson, J.R., Koren, G., Matthews, S.G.·2010·Placenta

Abstract

Recent studies have illustrated the importance of placental drug transport proteins, such as P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) in limiting fetal exposure to drugs and toxins. Moreover, increasing evidence supports a role for Pgp and BCRP in the normal development and physiological function of the placenta. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes encoding Pgp and BCRP have been described and are associated with altered protein expression, transporter activity, and clinical outcome in studies focusing on tissues other than the placenta. This review aims to summarize current research regarding the association between these polymorphisms and expression and function in the placenta. The influence of these genotypes on fetal drug exposure and altered placental physiology or development is also presented. To date, evidence suggests that SNPs in both ABCB1 and ABCG1 can alter expression of their respective protein; however, the functional significance of these polymorphisms is less clear. An understanding of this genotype-phenotype relationship will allow for prediction of susceptible or favorable genotypes in order to personalize medication choices to minimize fetal exposure to teratogens, or to maximize pharmacological therapy to the fetus.

  • Perturbations of placental barrier function due to mechanical damage, polymorphisms, or environmental factors may lead to increased fetal exposure.

    “Nonetheless, perturbations of this function due to mechanical damage, polymorphisms (267), or environmental factors (287), may lead to increased fetal exposure.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
