Gestational day 11 rat embryos were cultured for 20 h in the presence of nifedipine (NIF), diltiazem (DIL) and verapamil (VER), and the effects of these calcium channel blockers on embryonic heart rate and gross morphology were examined. Reductions of embryonic heart rate were dose dependent and rev
The effect of supplementary L-methionine (Met) on the incorporation of methionine was evaluated in 9.5-day rat conceptuses cultured in vitro. Parallel experiments with L-leucine (Leu) were performed for comparison. Conceptuses were cultured for 24 hr in the presence of 3 H-labeled Met or Leu, and th
Background: Heterologous antiserum to the visceral yolk sac (AVYS) is teratogenic, inducing a spectrum of malformations in vivo and producing similar effects in vitro. Numerous studies support the concept that AVYS-induced malformations result from embryonic nutritional deficiency, without affecting
Effects of depletion of reduced glutathione (GSH) on selenium (Se) embryotoxicity in cultured rat embryos were examined. Rat embryos at day 9.5 of gestation were cultured for 48 h in the presence of Se as either sodium selenite at 10 and 20 ยตM or sodium selenate at 30 and 100 ยตM. Embryonic GSH was d
Acute human exposure to methanol (MeOH) results in elevated serum concentrations of both MeOH and formic acid. In order to better assess the risk of adverse developmental effects of MeOH exposure in humans, the effects of the combination of formate and MeOH, in addition to the individual toxicity pr
