All-trans-retinoic acid (atRA) serves essential functions during embryogenesis and throughout postnatal vertebrate life. Insufficient or excess atRA causes teratogenic and/or toxic effects in the developing embryo: interference with atRA biosynthesis or signaling likely underlies some forms of cance

## BACKGROUND AND METHODS. To assess the effect of retinoids on prostatic ductal branching morphogenesis, anterior prostates from newborn rats were cultured under serumfree conditions for 6 days in the presence of testosterone (10 -8 mM) plus 13-cis-retinoic acid (13-cis-RA), all-trans-retinoic ac
## Abstract The responses of the immortalized rat preosteoblast UMRโ201โ10B to ascorbic acid (AA), 1,25(OH)~2~D~3~ (calcitriol), and retinoic acid (RA) were examined. UMRโ201โ10B cells have an undetectable basal alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity that is induced after 24 h of treatment with 10^โ6^
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** __Dominant hemimelia (Dh)__ is an autosomal dominant mutation that arose spontaneously in mice. __Dh__ animals are asplenic and they exhibit asymmetric hindlimb defects in association with reduced numbers of lumbar vertebrae. These defects suggest that __Dh__ acts early
