Table 2:

Basal levels and de novo production of extracellular KYNA in fetal and maternal liver.

Fetal Liver Maternal Liver
Basal
(pmoles/h/mg protein) 		3.5 ± 0.4 9.7 ± 1.1
De novo production
(pmoles/h/mg protein) 		40.0 ± 7.3 91.3 ± 19.1

Basal extracellular levels and de novo production of KYNA after incubation of tissue slices from fetal and maternal liver of GD 18 WT mice with 10 μM kynurenine. De novo production indicates values obtained after the subtraction of basal levels. Data are the mean ± SEM (n=4). See text for experimental details and statistical analyses.
