“…We also hypothesize that extracellular vesicles (exosomes 30–160 nm) released from the FM and placental cells may also contain drug transport proteins and might impact drug trafficking across the feto-maternal interfaces. The objectives were to (1) localize the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) in human FM; (2) determine the drug transport function of BCRP in chorion trophoblast cells (CTCs) of the FM; and (3) investigate the presence of BCRP in FM cell-derived exosomes, as a paracrine modifier of the tissue environment for transport functions. …”
