Purpose : Retinoic acid(RA) is well known as a potent teratogenic agent in both deficiency and excess. Cellular retinoic acid binding proteins(CRABPs) are involved in RA. We carried this study in order to determine the possible relations of CRABPs with RA-induced teratogenesis through observation of the expression patterns of CRABP Ⅰand Ⅱ in developing rats.
Methods : 35S-labeled RNA probes were... |
