The purpose of this project was to address the convergent effect of POE and PAE on key placental immune and serotonin factors. The central hypothesis was that increased opioid-induced activation of the TLR4 pathway in the placenta results in dysregulated immune cytokine expression and serotonin function and this relationship will be magnified in POE and PAE placental tissue.
