Effect of Hypoxia on the Calcium and Magnesium Content, Lipid Peroxidation Level, and Ca2+-ATPase Activity of Syncytiotrophoblast Plasma Membranes from Placental Explants
Figure 3
Panels (a) and (b). Lipid peroxidation (as TBARS) of basal (BM) and microvillus plasma membranes (MVM) prepared from normal human term placental explants, previously cultured under either normoxia, hypoxia, or hypoxia + 4 mM MgSO4. Values expressed as means ± S.E., for . Panels (c) and (d). PMCA activity of basal (BM) and microvillus plasma membranes (MVM) prepared from normal human term placental explants, previously cultured under either normoxia, hypoxia, or hypoxia + 4 mM MgSO4. Values expressed as means ± S.E., for . (II) versus (I) . (III) versus (I) n.s. (III) versus (II) .
