## Abstract Excess retinoic acid (RA) signaling can be teratogenic and result in cardiac birth defects, but the cellular and molecular origins of these defects are not well understood. Excessive RA signaling can completely eliminate heart formation in the zebrafish embryo. However, atrial and ventr

A method employing trifluoroacetic acid for the quantitative determination ofallrrans-retinoic acid and 13-cis-retinoic acid in serum is described. The method permits the detection of as little as 0.3 Kg of either compound. Retinoic acid can serve the general tissue functions of vitamin A, except i
Some authors recently hypothesized the existence of a new retinoic acid (RA) phase in addition to the two already known polymorphs. We investigated RA polymorphism and our results exclude the presence of new modifications and refine the properties of the known forms. By comparison of simulated and a
BACKGROUND: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor-โฃ (TGFโฃ) regulate cell proliferation and differentiation in the embryo. The induction of cleft palate (CP) by all trans-retinoic acid (RA) was associated with altered expression of TGFโฃ, EGF receptor, and binding of EGF. This s
