Figure 8. Sulfation activities of 4-nitrophenol (4 μM) and dopamine (1 μM) in primary cytotrophoblast cells.

Figure 8

Sulfotransferase activities were measured in the presence and in the absence of 1 mM and 4 mM 2,6,-dichloro-4-nitrophenol (DCNP). At these concentrations, DCNP previously completely abolished 4-nitrophenol and dopamine sulfation in BeWo cells. DCNP also completely inhibited 4-nitrophenol and dopamine sulfation in the primary trophoblast cells to indicate that 4-nitrophenol and dopamine sulfation are being mediated by SULT1A1 and SULT1A3 respectively.
