Effect of paternal folate deficiency on placental folate content and folate receptor α expression in rats
We investigated the effect of paternal folate status on folate content and expression of the folate transporter folate receptor α (FRα) in rat placental tissues. Rats were mated after males were fed a diet containing 0 mg of folic acid/kg of diet (paternal folate-deficient, PD) or 8 mg folic acid/kg...
