Nicotine 128-136 transthyretin Homo sapiens 206-209 35395343-9 2022 RESULTS: Nicotine blocks uptake of transthyretin-T4 by human placental trophoblast cells. Nicotine 9-17 transthyretin Homo sapiens 35-48 35395343-10 2022 Nicotine reduces the expression of the trophoblast scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1) that plays a role in transthyretin-T4 uptake. Nicotine 0-8 transthyretin Homo sapiens 114-127 35395343-11 2022 Molecular dynamic modelling suggests that when T4 is bound to transthyretin, nicotine binding increases tetramer stability, reducing the ability of the transthyretin-T4 complex to enter trophoblast cells. Nicotine 77-85 transthyretin Homo sapiens 62-75 35395343-12 2022 CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that nicotine exposure during pregnancy reduces transplacental transport of transthyretin and T4 to the placenta and developing fetus.
