Maternal folate deficiency causes inhibition of mTOR signaling, down-regulation of placental amino acid transporters and fetal growth restriction in mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Maternal folate deficiency is linked to restricted fetal growth, however the underlying mechanisms remain to be established. Here we tested the hypothesis that mTOR functions as a folate sensor in vivo in mice and that maternal folate deficiency inhibits

Aberrant Gcm1 expression mediates Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation in folate deficiency involved in neural tube defects

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Wnt signaling plays a major role in early neural development. An aberrant activation in Wnt/β-catenin pathway causes defective anteroposterior patterning, which results in neural tube closure defects (NTDs).
